Free Fall, No Chute

Yeah...
No rope.
No wings.
Just the drop.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Wind slap face, mouth pulled wide,
Air burn cold, eyes locked, alive.
Hands reach out, find nothing there,
Every thought peel thin in the open air.
Time don't stretch, it snaps and slides,
Heart bang loud, no place to hide.
I don't ask where I'm gonna land,
I just fall through who I am.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Skin scream tight, nerves light wire,
Breath go short, lungs swallow fire.
Scream get lost before it form,
Fear ride quiet, calm in the storm.
I quit beggin' for solid ground,
Quit pretendin' I'm safe right now.
Every lie I wore up top
Gets stripped clean in the drop.
Let it go.
Let it rip.
No way up.
This is it.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Free fall - no chute.
No chute.
No chute.
Limbs go heavy, then weightless strange,
Eyes stay open, welcome change.
World shrink small to a thin black line,
Past burn off as I cross that line.
I don't flinch.
I don't plead.
I don't pray for a softer speed.
I chose the edge, I made the move,
Now it's just air and truth.
Heart beat.
Too loud.
All black.
No ground.
Free fall - no chute - can't go back.
Free fall - no chute - all black.
Heart beat - too loud - don't slack.
Free fall - no chute - fuck that.
Free fall - no chute - can't go back.
Free fall - no chute - all black.
Heart beat - too loud - don't slack.
Free fall - no chute - fuck that.
Still falling.
No parachute.
No bottom.
Just me.
