I'm getting ready to take one final leap into the air
I got my straps all tightened up and
I feel that I can't even really care
I'm all alone and I know that I can't dare to be free
That's because I'm in freefall
Freefall
In an airborne projectile
In a freefall
I'm falling thirty-two feet per second squared
I'm falling thirty-two feet per second per second
And the straps are loose about my body
And the air is rushing past my brain
I can't turn over and over and fall down freely
And all the clouds are drifting up towards me, up towards me
And I can feel the speed building
Oh, the speed is building
Oh, my face is drawn back in distortion
Air pressure forces my muscles to confuse
I can feel the air pressure pull my smile
I can't smile, really, pulsing back exposing my teeth to the wind
And I'm falling
And I'm in freefall
Freefall
Freefall
Freefall
Freefall
You know how it's like to be like a falling bird
And the power of the wind all rushing up to meet you
Give away that second
Give away that second
Freefall
FreefallHere 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, I'm drifting
Feels like I'm lifting
I cannot be over my head
I cannot be over my head
Filling with the wind and filling with my thoughts and
Filling up with colors all like the nerve patterns inside my skull
And I can hear the sounds 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 touch down
Touch down
Ah, Earth, hello Earth
Hello Earth, hello
Feels good
Feels good to be back on Earth
Feet on ground
