fly sideways

pale with blue eyes
the sun it cries hearing goodbyes
when you take to the skies
wing away dear
because there’s no more fear for today
there’s no need anyway

throw it from your body
drop it from your breast
confess the last of your rest
‘cause this is west
this is west
this is west from here
my dear
even though you’re never near

your breath can tell you what it means to live
your breath can tell you what it means

so give it away
give up your breath
give up your life
give up the night
to fly sideways while falling


give it away
give up your breath
give up your life
give up the night
to fly sideways while falling the world is big enough to bite
the world is big enough to …

so give it away
give up your breath
give up your life
give up the night
to fly sideways while falling

give it away
give up your breath
give up your life
give up the night
to fly sideways while falling

to fly sideways
sideways
while falling
