You Don't Realize

You don't realize
How pointless it is
To be on top of the world
Until

You learn how to fly
In the bottom of the sky
Above the world and the tops
Of its hills.

It's like an epiphany.
Come on, are you with me?
There's nothing to lose
Except

No, there's nothing to lose
This body is whose?
This life, is it worth it?
Except...

There are feathers on my wings
And I'm forgetting those things
That made my head spin
In a daze

Like I'm seasick and weary
And my heart shuffle in
From the rat's ugly, cold, dreary
Maze.

No, there's nothing to lose
Except

Gravity.
