sky beneath my feet
The perfect fall,

no one could tell at all

Verse 2

You were just an astronaut,

floating on a spark

Tearing up the atmosphere,

burning down the dark

As you fell in,

the heat against your skin

Till it got too bright to see

Interlude 1

Verse 3

Far away, I hear the things

they say about me

Even though they know you had

to go without me

Interlude 2

Verse 4
C 
Now you are an architect,
setting up the sea
Everyone is with you and you're
Em 
C 
F 
all waiting for me
Dm 
You check the net,
G 
Dm 
but you haven't caught me yet
G 
They're not quite done with me

Interlude 3

Verse 5
C 
Now I am an arsonist, seven miles high
Burning through the air I breathe,
Em 
F 
thunder in the sky
Dm 
My engine sings as it
G 
Dm 
melts this pair of wings
G 
That only I can see
