Michael

First guy: come on Michael! Now you have to jump Are you afraid or what? If you don't jump One of us you'll be not! Second guy: come on Michael! Don't be such a coward You have a parachute for god's sake! Be a real man, not one who's fake Third guy: come on Michael! Don't waste our time…. This is completely safe If you want to be a member of the club You must have the guts to jump Michael: I don't know if I want to do this I feel this is going to be a complete mess Because it frightens me when a crowd…. Claps and cheers Then afterwards, you're all alone… In regrets and tears Though I always wondered what birds feel like? Does the air feel the same when I ride a bike? Or is it more like a full speed motorcycle? Why are they keeping saying…. Come on Michael!! I don't want to join their club anymore What is even all of this needed for? I just want this plane to land So I can kiss the ground and hug the sand! I look down and see everything far and small Even skyscrapers don't look so tall This seems to be the real size of mankind Who searches for happiness but will never find Because he let happiness from his hand slip It seems we forgot that we're on a trip And now we just want to stay But even the biggest sea has a bay I wish if everybody could see…. The full picture from up here So they can know how silly and small…. What they fight over and waste lifetime on Isn't now the time to forget our disputes? To live together peacefully as brothers And just to focus on our contributes It's our duty to make this world better not others' We seem to be blinded by the fog That is made of hatred and jealously It's time to rub our eyes To see how this world became so filthy A place of hunger, sickness and war A place of no mercy Instead of enjoying our time on earth We're trying to own it But it's gonna be nobody's at last All we're doing is just ruining it We try to own what was never ours I hope us to enjoy our left couple hours Because life for sale was never meant It is only available for rent! I have decided to jump! After realizing that life is short And as the fellow said I have a parachute Then what can even go wrong…. More than the world has?! Now as I see the shining warm sun I feel that all my fears are gone It's time to just let go and have some fun So I'm gonna count from three up to one 3 2 1 ………!
