I've figured out where I went wrong
I forgot about gravity
My emotions were so manic
They didn't leap; they soared
Caught up in this ecstasy
Blinded in the fire of you
Even lust was an exhaulted thing
Caught up in sky thermals
I forgot the laws of Newton
And in the midst of my plummet down
I finally see the truth
The fall doesn't cause this pain
It's that sudden stop

Oh boy when we come back down to earth, that landing sure can be painful. Maybe if we spread the ground with mattresses it won't be so painful, soft landing you see.
