Music Video for "Fly"
www.emilyelhaj.com/lovelionblog/2017/12/29/john-bellows-fly-video

lyrics

I just wanna fly
Soaring sober over pools of refreshing water
To taste all that’s mine
To demystify what once had blown my mind

I don’t wanna die
A misnomer staring vacant from the shadow
To fake everything’s fine
To be distracted from the daemon at my side

They wake to make the day their slave
Just giving their lives away as if it had become a burden

I must multiply
Shed my seed on the shameful deed of a filthy dagger
To raise heaven on high
To be trapped just like the genie all his life
Only in battle can we cry

They wake to make the day their slave
Just giving their lives away as if it had become a problem

Life is a leap, flailing arms, changing colors
With one foot still caught in the snare
And you cry disbelief while the storms chase each other
Do you long to belong to despair
