Overworked Animals - View From Above Lyrics

A brief escape
From this place we've created
No gods out here to call
Age old tales
Of ego and wealth
Numbing the minds of all
Now you see me falling ever so slightly apart
Take me far enough
To look back at the earth
From way up here
Reveals itself a colourful, colourful world
Take me past the edge
Where light won't return
Sweep away the dust of war
Rebuild a colourful, colourful world
Underneath the surface
Hiding out of sight
A primal instinct arises
On the verge of fight or flight
In all honesty
Do your very worst to me
The only force to hold me down is gravity
Soon i'll see you soaring ever so lightly above
Take me far enough
To look back at the earth
From way up here
Reveals itself a colourful, colourful world
Take me past the edge
Where light won't return
Don't forget the scars of war
Rebuild a colourful, colourful world
