Luftmensch

Crash land; there's dirt in my eyes
Climb the ladder into the skies
Back again to who knows where
I'm safe and sound as long as I'm up there

I guess I'm not your average
Two plus two guy
I'd rather sit and watch
The sky pass me by

I'll tell a story in
The best way I can
With far more yelling
Than a step by step plan

And if you wanna look at me
From a far away country
Your satisfactions not guaranteed
I'll try my very best to take the lead

You've got a lot to do
Unless you wanna be the person who
Wakes up at the end of time
Regretting all the things you left behind

And you've got a lot to say
For a guy who's selling lemonade
Tell me when the bottle's dry
I'll let you know if you've lost your chance to try

If you found me sitting here
In the far away stratosphere
Rest assured I'm safe and sound
I promise soon I'll be homeward bound

I guess I'm not the one to solve a problem but
When it comes to sleepy eyes I've got them
I'll spend the day wishing I was somewhere
And hope that maybe soon I'll find what I care for

Before I'm getting thrown out of the door

You never asked me what I wanted
I don't know if it'd matter if I got it
I've got a few ideas
But nothing concrete yet

I've got a message for the kids at home
You better make it known
I'm getting out of this place

And when I fall from this cloud so high
You'll have to say goodbye
Before I miss my chance to fly

There's so much more to life than just what you see
I guess you bring a softer side out of me
What is it that you want so badly?
I don't believe you're being all you could be
