Near The Sun

I never thought I could get near the sun this close and not be burned

My fear of riding high up on the hills and fall has disappeared

I can put on my fake and almost real pair of wings

And I can play with the wind and lay on it and just drift in

I might get hurt, I might lose things, but I know, I know I'll reach this star

Someday I'll find a secret path to a greater hope, a better sky to fly away from here

I never thought I could dive in the sea this long without breathing

The sound of silence is breaking my ears, but I'm free, so I'll stay still

I can let myself go and forget all the craziness

Of this world down below, the things they do, this afterglow
