Surely winds will blow when you are locked away 
Cherishing a white and shiny pearl that we call time 
Free choice costs us funnily 
You must have heard the tale of Arabian nights 
Where a magic carpet sails the sand dunes 
To give a view that money could never buy 

These fairy tales dictate your plans... 

As you minimise what could only be death alive! 
People from the lower floors hear the whimpers of a Woman consumed by guilt 
You broke the trust that was your glue 
Now you bear a cross you can't undo 
It's peppered with hate, it acts as his bait 
There are limited ways to deal with your fate 
Lay your body down for the High Kite Ride 

I guess I was never too good at confrontations 
I spent too much time bringing balance to the equation 

As you minimise what could only be death alive! 
People from the lower floors hear the whimpers of a Woman in a hell she's built 
You broke the trust that was your glue 
Now you bare a cross you can't undo. 
It's peppered with hate, it acts as his bait 
There are limited ways to deal with your fate 
Lay your body down for the High Kite Ride 

Slowly the insults sink in - she is lost 
Grasping at the last signs of normal life 
It's a lie / you can cry 
She knows it's always the same... 


Put aside the kite string, you are locked away 
Euphemising control as passion got you nowhere 
But this life of misery 


As I justify what could only be death alive! 
Day-by-day ad nauseum 
As I watch the petals of the table orchid wilt 
I stole the trust that was our glue 
If I leapt back in time I wouldn't hurt you 
Once a loving man 
Now a psychopath 
There are just some things from which we cannot come back! 

Lay your body down for the High Kite Ride!
