Atmosphere

An atmosphere (from Modern Greek ἀτμός (atmos), meaning 'vapour', and σφαῖρα (sphaira), meaning 'sphere') is a layer or a set of layers of gases surrounding a planet or other material body, that is held in place by the gravity of that body. An atmosphere is more likely to be retained if the gravity it is subject to is high and the temperature of the atmosphere is low. The atmosphere of Earth is composed of nitrogen (about 78%), oxygen (about 21%), argon (about 0.9%) , carbon dioxide (0.03%) and other gases in trace amounts. Oxygen is used by most organisms for respiration; nitrogen is fixed by bacteria and lightning to produce ammonia used in the construction of nucleotides and amino acids; and carbon dioxide is used by plants, algae and cyanobacteria for pho… more »

And I don't even know why
I can't hold on to a word that you say
You escaped from your cage
Just to dance and play across a random face
Like

Fly away, little horse, fly
'For it finds you on the front page
We're familiar with the frustration
To say we stay sedated
It's an understatement

Look alive, life is a celebration
We would like to use your current location
Lost faith after the first rotation
And gave it back to the dirt
Like it wasn't worth saving

And oh, Lord, if I wasn't so bored
I'd already poured this bottle on the floor
Yeah, right, we ain't spilling a drop
About to get so high that we feel like Gods
And I don't even know why

Time ain't cheap, but I know why
'Cause what I need, I can't buy
You're trying to sleep, I'm trying to fly
But life goes on, and so do I
I'm trying to fly

And I don't even know why
I still feel like a rat in a maze
Even though I know nowadays
I should probably have found a
Method to count my ways

I'm tryna leave the runway
Confident, I need to go
Surround myself with sunrays
Life's too short to keep shoveling flakes
I walk into the water till
I'm covered in waves

From the first breath till the next laugh
Better have a plan to catch your best half
Never let the lakes break
Beneath the heavyweight
Gotta spray a little paint on
This designated negative space

And I don't even know why
But I'm committed to leaving you with
The valid and vivid impression
We could separate the pain from the message
But state of mind still in
The state of corrections
And I don't even know why

Time ain't cheap, but I know why
'Cause what I need, I can't buy
You're trying to sleep, I'm trying to fly
But life goes on and so do I
