[Verse 1]
Born of Earthly legacy
I am bound to gravity
Firmly planted on the grass
Tradition carries on
Upon the ground my time was spent
They told me I should be content
Too often I would look above
And know where I was drawn

[Chorus]
Why do I keep dreaming
High above the clouds?
It seems as though I'm seeking my demise
'Cause I still end up falling
Tumbling toward the ground
And delivered up by angels in disguise

[Verse 2]
Inches from the lofty ledge
I test my luck over the edge
I lingered far too carelessly
And toppled through the wind
"Don't look down," I heard
My luck had returned
A crueler fate had fled
Before I could accept my end
[Chorus]
Why do I keep dreaming
High above the clouds?
It seems as though I'm seeking my demise
'Cause I still end up falling
Tumbling toward the ground
And delivered up by angels in disguise

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus]
Why do I keep dreaming
High above the clouds?
It seems as though I'm seeking my demise
'Cause I still end up falling
Tumbling toward the ground
And delivered up by angels in disguise

[Outro]
'Cause I still end up falling
Tumbling toward the ground
And delivered up by angels in disguise
