grounded my wings. in my dreams my voice was like a crashing airplane. My breath drew fire and my body found peace
& its all gone now. And you can't hope to get it back
& you can't leave now. With so much blood on the tracks
Given up on, the fruitless notion that salvation is coming. Through the wreckage, I burned up like coal in the pilots cabin
&its all gone now. And you can't hope to get it back
& and you can't learn to fly kid, give those wings back
I don't want to burn up in these flames, don't let me, I don't wanna burn up in these flames.

excerpt from the Lotus Sutra
..
This old and decayed house belonged to one man. The man had gone a short distance from the house when, before he had been gone very long, in the rear rooms suddenly a fire broke out, from all four sides at once, raging in flame. The ridgepoles and beams, the rafters and pillars, shaking and cracking broke asunder and fell, while the walls and partitions collapsed. The ghosts and demons raised their voices in a scream. The malignant beasts and poisonous insects milled about in a panic, unable to get out. Stinking smoke, with its foul odour, filled the place on all four sides. In this way that house was extremely frightening,full with calamities, conflagrations, and many other troubles occurring all at once.
At that time the householder, standing outside the door, heard someone say, "Your children a while ago, in play, entered this house. Being little and knowing nothing, they are enjoying themselves and clinging to their amusements."
Having heard this, the great man entered the burning house in alarm, to save them from the catastrophe of burning. He coaxed his children, explaining the many calamities: the demons, insects, snakes, foxes and dogs."This is a woeful and troublesome place; how much the more so with a great fire!"
The children, knowing nothing, though they heard their father's admonitions, were still addicted as before to their pleasures and amused themselves ceaselessly. The great man thought to himself, "This house has not one pleasant feature, yet the children, steeped in their games, and not heeding my instructions, will surely be injured by the fire."
