Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone, my senses reel
A fatal attraction is holding me fast
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit, IIce is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stoneA soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to tryCan't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit, IAbove the planet on a wing and a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the nightThere's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of blissCan't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit, I
