Apollo Sunshine - Fear of Heights lyrics

I'm easing out of a single file line possessed by early morning dew. In rays of light that shine through the tops of trees the teachers herd us t'wards the bus with hands like dried up leaves not like the green so high above and below. Now I am an airplane! Am an airplane! Ooh-ee-ooh-ee-ooh A moment's hesitation in the dream this airplane's tainted by long living and in this moment I am a child. With wings spread wide and weaving through the others more than simply fearless I catch the wind and turn cartwheels through the trees in a halo of light reflecting of the yellow bus. I catch the glares from on the gra**. The children stare (their knees are scabbed). Their chance to fly is pa**ing by and on their knees spread wrinkled lines. We all must die like petals wilt and who am I to stand on stilts, but still obliged to ask a question, sound as any for the asking, while floating 'bove the ground. "Do you children care to join me?" "No, we're all afraid---afraid of fright." "I don't wanna be alone---suspended, on parade--- with the fear of heights."
