George Stephenson

George Stephenson (9 June 1781 – 12 August 1848) was an English civil engineer and mechanical engineer. Renowned as the "Father of Railways", Stephenson was considered by the Victorians a great example of diligent application and thirst for improvement. Self-help advocate Samuel Smiles particularly praised his achievements. His chosen rail gauge, sometimes called 'Stephenson gauge', was the basis for the 4 feet 8+1⁄2 inches (1.435 m) standard gauge used by most of the world's railways. Pioneered by Stephenson, rail transport was one of the most important technological inventions of the 19th century and a key component of the Industrial Revolution.

Gazing from the window
Miles above like birds in the sky
Don’t know how I got here
I don’t even know how to fly
You put on that same face
Everything I ask you deny
Push me to that open door
And tell me it’s fine

Oh wow, here comes the ground
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?

Oh wow, here comes the ground
(It’s getting closer now)
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?



I can feel the wind rush
But all I see is blue in the skies
Turn to see you there, baby
Waving with a smile in your eyes
What a way to go; what a thing to do to your boy
You thought they’d never guess, you thought that no one could ever know

Oh wow, here comes the ground
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?

Oh wow, here comes the ground
(It’s getting closer now)
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?

Did she say close your eyes
Hide away how you feel inside
Stay there quiet, have no doubt
When all you wanted was the truth to come out?

Cut the cord ’cause it’s
Just the same 
So I 
Fall apart 
When you

Play your games 
I don’t

Wanna jump 
So I

Close my eyes 
And I

Face the truth
It’s time to fly

Oh wow, here comes the ground
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?

Oh wow, here comes the ground
(It’s getting closer now)
And my parachute won’t open now
Why you cut my strings, taken everything
Got me falling, falling down?
