Fantastic Flight - Chapter 2 - the Seething Storm and the Terrific Trance

*chorus* The mountain winds are howling its stormy resentment The snow glitters on the triumphant mountains… I’ve tried to conceal these feelings of discontent My eyes are spraying with tears of sorrow – weep no more, sad fountains Don’t push me to the limits – I breathe in and out I let go of my anxiety and trade it with prosperity– I’m one with the passionate, frozen desires in my heart I’m strong like Sampson in the bible – Let the light of day unfreeze my heart’s agony and avarice I don’t want to believe in those silly allegories… Am I your living sacrifice? My heart is as cold as ice…I need to take His advice! I have faced reality alone before Is this real or is this a myth? There’s more land to explore! (V. 3) I know I’m a scatterbrained boy, Never meant to be a loner forever it seems I know – I’ve been manipulated and played with like a valueless toy I hope you can repair my broken dreams I’ve had so many chances, But I ask for one more chance… My positivity enhances and my luck advances – we exchange splendid glances You are beautiful at first and second glance! Let’s dance, honey bunches! Let’s dance, darling! We’ll both be free – caught in a terrific trance You are a marvelous blessing on another level You are a peace-abiding, virtuous angel, not a dynamic, demented devil You’re a gift, not a curse! You’re a gift, not a curse! *chorus* The mountain winds are howling its stormy resentment The snow glitters on the triumphant mountains… I’ve tried to conceal these feelings of discontent My eyes are spraying with tears of sorrow – weep no more, sad fountains Don’t push me to the limits – I breathe in and out I let go of my anxiety and trade it with prosperity– I’m one with the passionate, frozen desires in my heart I’m strong like Sampson in the bible – Let the light of day unfreeze my heart’s agony and avarice I don’t want to believe in those silly allegories… Am I your living sacrifice? My heart is as cold as ice…I need to take His advice! I have faced reality alone before Is this real or is this a myth? There’s more land to explore! (V. 4) Calm yourself and hopefully, we’ll live in ecstasy! I overcame this dilemma and I’ve found out that I’m bold like a lion Be not afraid and don’t feel envy in your heart – let’s share sunlit glee! I can tell that this hardship will pass like a seething storm – you were born to be a champion I wish I had a pair of wings like Maleficent! I envy the golden eagle, able to soar with faith that there’s a grand, fantastic future
