Thrill From Above

The rush I get while moving higher
With beauty surrounding me
A cloud goes past my heart beats faster
We wait to soar down to the sea

I jump to fall right to the ground
A leash of life upon my back
The wind hits my ears breaking sound
I need to open up my pack

The reach to pull the cord of life
I feel the air flow through my hands
It's cutting like a cold sharp knife
Now waiting till my body lands
