Earthbound born to the infinite light Gravity's enemy pondered the skies
He envied the birds and the arc of their flight
As unquiet shadows cloaked the night He dreamed a better way to fly
Soon one day he'd leave the ground The world would watch him floating by
Blinding lights through open doors His fortune for a place in line In his mind there's something more Than all the money left behind
Guided by the myth of saints A passageway will be revealed Faith and hope and love remain The last act of a grand ordeal
He dreamed a better way to fly He dreamed a better way
Earthbound born to the infinite light Unquiet shadows cloaked the night He dreamed a better way to fly He envied the birds The arc of their flight He dreamed a better way to fly
