A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
can I escape this irresistible grasp?
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Above 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 night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit
-Learning to Fly / Pink Floyd
