Gravity

from After Party by Down By Five

lyrics

The edge has shown to extend, in the end, when you get there how do you know?
When you ascend it's cold, try to fly, get too high, or just stand there getting old

I heard once, that just like the surface right here on the earth, if you go far enough, you'll get back around again
Get this, as we close the distance, the trip turns to inches, and time's left behind, too late to ever turn around

The weight that pulls and holds us to the ground
The strangest thing we can't explain somehow
It might be drifting in from other planes
It's hard to say - it's locked away

Gravity, you to me, it's a good thing
Because it keeps you here next to me
Let's call it our ring
If we break free, into space we, still can safely, live and maybe, find a new world, to hold onto, maybe not.

Exceptions hold, all the lies you try to hide, in the end it all is known
And in the bed we show, every side, never shy, and if you feel this let it go.

It's best if, we stick to a distance, when we sense a difference - no use in a war - I learned from many days before
Hours make, years seem like a lifetime, still we see the starshine, from the past it stays, to light the eyes of everyone

So get your orbit on
Saddle up ride round the middle
Into space we're drawn
Gravitate into the riddle
Many minds don't know what to make of it
Telling lies, no doubt they're still faking it
Separate the myth from the maker - it's way past the time
