New Transmission

Tracing my steps right back to where it all began

Looking for clues to surmise why it is that I am

Uncovering this irony

As I behold this vision in front of me

I'm watching the water erase my steps in the sand

Searching the stars for answers

Never to come back down

Gazing through the smoke

At the cities below

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds

Sometimes I've felt like a zeppelin grounded at land

Like anchoring points to this earth are manacles and

In severing strings

To the former things

The anvils binding me to gravity

I'll give them the slip in ignition to infinite paths

Searching the stars for answers

Never to come back down

Gazing through the smoke

At the cities below

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds

Searching the stars for answers

Never to come back down

Gazing through the smoke

At the cities below

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds

Their faces are shrinking (in the thinning air)

The bonds are breaking (in the twilight glare)

Searching the stars for answers

Never to come back down

Gazing through the smoke

At the cities below

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds

Searching the stars for answers

Never to come back down

Gazing through the smoke

At the cities below

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds

And they watch as I'm becoming just a face in the clouds
