Up In The Air

Up in the air, just above the clouds

Looking out the window

Oh what a beautiful sight

Up in the air, way above the ground

Unplug my ears and think

What a terrible sound

That the engines make, it don't seem right

Being here it don't make no sense to me

Although I'm up in the air

I can go anywhere, up in the air

Up in the air in an old machine

Black clouds, rain, thunder outside

What a beautiful sight

Up in the air, cheating on gravity

But I'm stuck, stuck in this shell of steel

It ain't place for me

The noise that the engines make

It don't seem right

Being here it don't make no sense to me

Although I'm up in the air

I can go anywhere, but then I see –

The fine line between space and the atmosphere

And suddenly everything makes sense to me

I could go anywhere, without a shell or a care

And when the aeroplane breaks in half

Just leave your body behind

Then we could all float around, no run and hide

No worries up there, save the treasure you've found

It's all yours to keep, in the air - don't be scared
