Lyrics

Don’t try to tie me to your fate
Strapped to the chair, I don’t care to travel second rate
Breaking my bonds, I disintegrate 
Drifting away you can’t say I’m not the King of

Weightless - such a beautiful soul 
Weightless - be a part of the whole  
Weightless - cast your eyes to the sky
Never bother with the ethereal ‘why’

Lift up your head and you’ll find me here
Slipped free and floating above the Northern hemisphere         
Cat’s grin the last to disappear
The Red Queen arrives and is beating the King of 

Weightless - screaming off with my head
Weightless - I arise from the dread
Weightless - I look up from my play
As I snip the thread and fly away

Weightless - free from your heavy hand
Weightless - leave my feet as they stand
Weightless - heaven’s light on my face
Falling up into ever-expanding space
