Land in the Water

A man goes up
Another comes down
First guy I mentioned
Nowhere to be found
The first thing they teach you
When you reach for the sky
You leave earth behind you
For some other guy
Some other guy
Some other guy
Some other guy
If we land in the water
Put your faith in me
Some die with dirt in their mouths
And some, a taste of the sea
When you walk to the runway
They take down your name
When you come in for landing
It won’t be the same
It’s the laws of physics
In this crazy old town
Where one man goes up
Another comes down
Another comes down
Another comes down
Another comes down
