Rise and Fall


The rise. The fall. The view above it all.

Action and reaction that's the law.

But what happens if there's nothing there to break the fall

Or if we can't make it up the rise and we're left to crawl.

It all starts when a mind starts to draw

Then an idea becomes a reality within us all.

The thrill the thrill the thrill of the fall.

A man takes a picture transforms it to a tall

Structure. Reaching incredible heights, speeds. Aw.

Aw is what you're left with the kids turn to maw.

"Can we do it again maw?"

"One more time maw!"

One more rise. One more fall. One more view above it all.
