Whales in the Clouds

Why am I such a thorn?
You wish I never were born
How did I fall from your grace?
Oh, dad, give me an embrace
Mother, you were so proud
Of me, now I’m cowed
By your sudden mistrust
To which I must adjust

Whales flying to the moon
Why can’t you take me with you?
Mesmerized by stellar rays
I would be banished in space

We live in the clouds
That’s where we hide our doubts
That’s where we’re hiding from
Fear of mistake
Abuse and the fate
You've sentenced us to
All your scolding and slaps
Make this shelter collapse
Don’t be scared of the
Pied Piper tales
We've got the truth to unveil
You’ve done his job for him
A cliff in the rye
Silhouettes in the sky
I’m watching them moving on
A moment and they’ll be gone

A cliff in the rye
Silhouettes in the sky
I’m watching them moving on
A moment and I’ll be gone
Whales flying to the moon
Why can’t you take me with you?
Mesmerized by stellar rays
I would be banished in space
