The concept of Fall From a Height welled from passion for flying, high places and free falling. The message is also to fulfil your dreams without caring what the others would do. The arrangement is a mixture of breezy trance influence and interesting rhythmic elements.
Lyrics:
Fleeting moments slide into oblivion
I would never make the same mistake
I’ve got to break the glass above to
Reach the heights I’ve dreamt in every waking thought
I need a true sensation to declare
You can join me in the air if you dare
Step off the ledge
Fall from a height
Grant me the power of flight
Once more make earthly burden light
Fall from a height
Fall from a height
Grant me the power of flight
Once more make earthly burden light
Fall from a height
Secret feelings goad into rebellion
I would never hide my greatest pride
I’ve always tried to run away from
Those who trade their freedom for some dignity
I chose a simple passion to pursue
Freely floating in the blue, after you
Step off the ledge
Fall from a height
Grant me the power of flight
Once more make earthly burden light
Fall from a height
On the ground chances pass by
I want to fly
Right through the sky like a kite
Fall from a height
Mission: ascension
To harness that might
Fall from a height
Grant me the power of flight
Once more make earthly burden light
Fall from a height
Falling from a height makes me alive
