I bite my tongue,

Don't say a word I'm too nervous,
Silence is killing me,
Words come flooding out of me,
What did I say,
Did I have to push you away?
I feel the tears forming in my eyes,
But they don't fall,
Not strong enough for that,
Not after all.
Oh dear,
Oh dear,
What do I do?
Where do I go from here?

I'm gone,
No more pain to remember,
Only song,
From the angels up above,
I'm up in the stratosphere,
The clouds are big,
Water can be soft.

I'm flying high,
Don't wanna come down from this,
Please don't cry,
I gotta get down from this,
The angels sigh,

Why can't I make up my mind,
Can't retreat,
Can't surrender,
The thorns are burrowing under my skin,
Vines start to grow,
The roses emerge from my darkness,

I guess romance is vicious after all...

Where do I go?
My corpse is useless.
Look at it grow.
The petals redder than my blood,
The leaves greener than your eyes,
My body is compost,
Guess it's not my body anymore,

Just what they wanted right?

The angels sigh again,
As my spirit wanders farther,
Oh(1)Oo(3)Oh(2)
I'm up in the stratosphere,
Can't come down,
Can't surrender,
The clouds are cold,
But the view is worth it,
Oh how it's worth it.

The sky's colors may be forbidden,
'cause our minds can't comprehend 'em,

I'd take a picture, but I can't feel my fingers, okay,

Okay,

I'm almost done I swear, 

The water can be soft, 

but tonight it's hard to swallow, the ice is formed in my throat,

Can't feel a thing,

not even my tears on my face as my spirit weeps,

I want to come down to you,

But you don't want me,

Not really,

That's okay,

I'm okay,

I'm in the Stratosphere....
