lyrics

That moment of hovering, when the branches break
and gravity no longer exists...
When, suspended in air, weightless, anything is possible.
Before gravity returns,
before physics and laws of nature, before...
That moment before gravity is flight

In this machine, I'm on autopilot,
I am going going going and when I say ready,
it means we count down to zero, and then we bolt.
'Cause when you say “ready ready ready” and I say “lista,”
and you say “jump” and I say “how high?”
And I'm flying flying flying, flying through the air,
I'm flying down the hill, I'm on my bike –
and nothing can stop me now, I'm adrenaline,
no fight, just flight.
I am Robin Williams, I am Peter Pan –
no stars in sight, just flight.

In this machine, which might be an earthship,
which might be a whale, or thunder and lightning,
I am running running running into your arms –
into your song is a place where I can go
where we play make-believe, where we can feel the feels,
where you can build me a dream or write me a song
and your warmth plays harmonies, the last of your sunbeams,
the contours of this earth and my body that holds me up.
And it rained so hard, and we played 'til dawn,
and I measure your loss because you're gone gone gone.
And even though you're gone, even though you're gone,
though you're gone there will always be a need for song.
