Free Fall (Long Version)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm getting ready to take one final leap into the air
I got my straps all tightened up and I feel like I can't even
Really care
I'm all alone and I know that I can dare
To be
Free
That's because I'm in free fall
Free fall
An airborne
Projectile!
In free fall
Huh!
Falling 32 feet per second squared
Falling 32 feet per second per second
Ah, the straps are all loose against my
Body
And the air is rushing past my
Brain
I can't turn turn over and over
And fall now
Feeling
All the clouds are drifting up
Towards me
Up
Towards me up
I can feel the speed
Building
Aaaaah, the speed's building
All my face is drawn back in distortion
Air pressure force my muscles to confuse
I can feel the air pressure force my
Smile
Against my will it forces back
Exposes my teeth to the wind
And I'm falling...
And I'm in free fall...
Free fall...
Free fall
Free fall!
Free fall!
Oh, oh, uh-huh, oh!
Oh
Oh
Oh
Falling!
Falling, feeling like a...
The panic of the wind all rushing up
Delay that second
Delay that second!
Free fall
Free fall
Free fall
Free fall...
Her it comes!
I'm gonna pull the cord now
Feel the cord relax in my fist
All I have to do is turn my wrist
Pull the cord and the straps go
Tighter!
I'm drifting...
Drifting...
Feels like I am lifting
Canopy over my head
Canopy over my head
Feeling with the wind
And feeling with my own thoughts
Filling up with colours
All lighted up
In my skull
And I can hear the sound of the music
Of the wind and the Spheres!
And the sky disappears
And
The
Earth
Is
Rising
Up to greet me
The
Earth
Is
Rising
Up to greet, greet me
And my feet
Are going to land
Are going to land
Are going to land
Are going to...
Touchdown
Touchdown
Ah, Earth!
Hello Earth
Hello Earth!
(Hello)
Feels good
Good to be back on Earth
Feet
Down
Ground
