lirik lagu bonus disc - floating islands

there’s floating islands in the distance
and no one knows why
i guess they thought they’d had their fill of earth
and took to the sky
now every landlocked citizen can gaze upon an unearthly mass
and celebrate their elevated lives, knowing we all have been surpassed

we hear the cheering from above as all the sound travels down
i tried to greet them, but my sentence disappeared in the clouds
their mirth is so infectious that we think we might belong off the ground
when we ask how we can join them, suddenly
they don’t make a sound

the horizon has no power over where the earth agrees with the sky
i find it sort of terrifying someone could be living so high
it should be a miracle, those islands holding so strong
but i can’t shake the feeling something, somewhere, has gone horribly wrong

they sent a man back down to the earth; a diplomatic affair
his feet were never dirty as he seemed to somehow float in the air
he said that his prosperity would reach us when we felt lost
but underneath his promises, i saw he kept his fingers crossed

we waited for their plentitude to reach us so that we, too, could fly
no more earthly ecosystems governing how we will get by
but as the weeks went on, the floating islands just seemed further away
now it’s getting to the point where i don’t think there’s anything left to say
the horizon has no power over where the earth agrees with the sky
i find it sort of terrifying someone could be living so high
i turn my eyes to heaven and await the news of something profound
mm, and yet i find myself abandoned in the silence with my feet on the ground

i saw a man had fallen from the sky and shot right down to the land
we both knew that he had no hope of living on those islands again
he said “we think you’re animals, we hate you, but everyone knows
their affluence is happenstance, they’re lucky that those islands arose.”

i never thought it very fair that when the evening is done
those positioned highest in the sky will see the last of the sun
they show us so much ugliness that beauty should be far from their eyes
whoa
but despite their atmospheric ambition
they can never own the skies

the horizon has no power over where the earth agrees with the sky
they might be close to heaven, but remember:
they still have to die
i’m not one for miracles, i’ve got no wings to get off the ground (whoa)
i’m the patron saint of gravity, and i swear to god, i’ll bring you all down!

(waaoo!)
