flying

way of the flipside

Submitted by Aalen Fideli on Fri, 04/01/2011 - 05:00

riding a cloud, unconventional,

flying out loud, interdimensional,

run, jump, fly, come along for the ride.

I'm gonna see you on the flipside.

(chorus)

dancing in the fourth dimension,

step sideways between the particals,

there's no rain in zero gravity,

lost in thought, lost on the flipside.

 

alien ship, extraterrestrial,

major head trip, super fantastical,

laugh, cry, sing and spread your wings,

how off earth do you steer this thing.

(chorus)

dancing in the fourth dimension,

Afraid

I truly am trying To lift the weight in my chest Throwing away the shackles Be patient, I may yet decide to be free I really do want To unfurl my fragile, unused wings Beat up to the sky And fly Away from this frame of mind And yet the fear That I have worn as a blanket And as a straightjacket Still holds me In a death grip embrace

A wanderer's wings

I fold my shameful wings

and pray that no one may see

what I hide.

 Dark stains taint the purity of what was.

  Wings hurl, averse to savage winds,

  which change wings to a form

  worn and aged by endless use.

  They do not return unscathed by storms;

   wet salt is thrown against what was dry.

  I mourn immaculate dove-white wings

  which have been altered to a wanderer's feathers,

  because I know their fate;

  

    to  be submerged yet again by torrents

    which rise against me.
