Lyrics
it’s getting harder to tell
here in the stratosphere
I want only to know
jetfan oblivion
on the brink of space
I fell in love with the speed of sound,
that reckoning boom
when i looked down
I locked eyes with a sad sad girl
the maiden blue
in dream, gravity unraveled at the seams
infinitesimal
a vapor in the sun
I’m drifting farther away
here in this fuselage
just when the nose dips down
I’m searching for that trusty gauge
that tells me how high
or how low
i’m reaching for my parachute
cause I still can’t fly
I’m upside down
I don’t trust the ground beneath my feet
its only sky
I can’t rely
altimeter’s ticking time
it’s getting harder to tell
here in the stratosphere
I want only to know
jetfan oblivion
on the edge
silent earth comes swiftly into view
