I, Carrion (Icarian)

If the wind turns, if I hit a squallAllow the ground to find its brutal way to meI feel lighter than I have in so much timeI've crossed the border line of weightlessOne deep breath out from the skyI've reached a rarer height now that I can confirmAll our weight is just a burden offered to us by the worldAnd though I burn how could I fall?When I am lifted by every word you say to meIf anything could fall at all, it's the worldThat falls away from meYou have me floatin' like a feather on the seaWhile you're as heavy as the worldThat you hold your hands beneathOnce I had wondered what was holdin' up the groundBut I can see that all along, loveit was you all the way downLeave it now, I am sky-boundIf you need to, darling, lean your weight to meWe'll float away, but if we fallI only pray, don't fall away from meI do not have wings, love, I never willSoarin' over a world you are carryin'If these heights should bring my fallLet me be your ownIcarian carrionIf the wind turns, if I hit a squallAllow the ground to find its brutal way to meIf I should fall, on that dayI only pray, don't fall away from me
