Pardon the way I fly.
When you look up at the sky
And see me free-falling -
I am only soaring.

Do not believe your eyes,
Nor when you hear my cries.
Don't love without your mind,
For it's easy to be blind.

The sugarcoated words
Will be nothing but a hurt.
So here to remind you all:
Don't catch me when I fall.
