All eyes look up to me
High above the filthy streets
Heed no bullhorn when it calls
Watch me fly and die, watch me fall

Im the boy they cant ignore,
For the first time in my life, Im sure
All the love sent up high to pledge
Wont reach the ledge

Wind blows cold from the west
I smell coffee, I smell doughnuts for the press (on their breath? )
A girl that I knew once years ago
Is tryin to be reached on the phone

Im the boy she cant ignore,
For the first time in my life, Im sure
All the love sent up high to pledge...

(repeat)

Priest kneels silent, all is still
Policeman reaches from the sill
Watch him, watch him try his best
Therell be no medal pinned to his chest

Im the boy they couldnt ignore,
For the first time in my life, Im sure

(repeat)

Im the boy for the last time in my life

All the love that they pledge
For the last time will not reach the ledge
