Fly away… Fly away, my love Land not on the ground; Defy gravity And fly away… For nothing awaits you here But the heat of a raging fire- Hungry for your fibre, Hungry for your soul Waiting to swallow you up And burn you whole Leaving behind nought but ashes, Neither different, neither same Just another lot of waste To be scattered by the wind And collected by the dust To be lost in the fumes Of this polluted, polluted air.
Fly away…
Fly away, my love
Land not on the ground;
Defy gravity
And fly away…
For nothing awaits you here
But the heat of a raging fire-
Hungry for your fibre,
Hungry for your soul
Waiting to swallow you up
And burn you whole
Leaving behind nought but ashes,
Neither different, neither same
Just another lot of waste
To be scattered by the wind
And collected by the dust
To be lost in the fumes
Of this polluted, polluted air.
