Dive

Sitting, sitting, sitting
Waiting, waiting, waiting
Dying, dying, dying
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming
Floating, floating
Flying, flying
Soaring, soaring
Through the clouds
Dive!
Faster, faster
The wind rushing past you
Eyes water
Faster, faster
They’re gaining
Evasive maneuvers
To the left
To the right
Up, Up, Up
No time to look back
Climb, climb
Icy breath on your neck
Spin!
Now dive!
Down, down, down
Escape
The clouds part
A cliff over the dark ocean
A jagged cliff
Closer than it should be
Turn frantically
Turn, turn, turn
The rock reaches out
It scratches your shoulder
Not just your shoulder
Down your side
Shout, scream, anguish
But you make it
The cliff passes
Slowing, slowing
Landing in grass
Sigh of relief
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Close eyes
A cry from above
Look up, look up
The sun is blocked
They found you
Run, run, run
Fly, fly, fly
It’s too late
Wrapped up in darkness
Chaos, Pain
Snap
Quiet, quiet
Nothing, nothing
Wake, wake, wake
Live
