He said, "Behold! We are suspended by invisible strings."
We looked up, clinched to our feet.
We should have fallen.
So lost in the thought
That this could be magic
we sunk into awe.
Finally the promise of splendor,
We're finally surrounded
How we always imagined.
Earth has surrendered.
We should have fallen.
No strings attached.
All that is weightless
Can never collapse.
There are horses in the sky,
Hoofs towards heaven,
Racing to nowhere
Up the vertical plain.
No strings... No strings...
They galloped over steeples and spires
And it didn't strike us as strange.
We reach towards each other
And feel nothing at all.
No strings... No strings...
We look through the mirrors
And see nothing at all.
No things... No things...
The silhouette of the city's
A cold silver shroud
It feedbacks the clouds
To keep all eyes off the ground.
Even the blocks are unfixed
from the grid.
becoming floating facades in new spaces to live.
The towers are constructed by shadow
And light,
Stone becomes streams.
Life to desire and the touch-less
Content of dreams.
We hold to the city,
Our memory's a collective mirage,
Just as the brick of the past
Is at flight in new walls.
We should have fallen,
No strings attached.
All that is weightless can never collapse.
There are horses in the sky,
Racing to race
We're chasing their tails
Carving sky into tangible space.
No strings... No strings...
We are chasing the chase.
We'd stop if we ever just thought it was strange.
We reach towards each other
And feel nothing at all.
No strings... No strings...
We look through the mirrors
And see nothing at all.
No things... No things...
The silhouette of the city's
A warm amber flood.
It feedbacks the sun.
To keep all eyes on what
We wish to become.
