Songtext von Fall

What if the highest destination Of any given human life Was not a place that you could reach if You had to climb Wasn't up above like heaven So no need to fly at all What if to reach the highest place You had to fall Fall, like a drunkard on your face Like a parachuter jumping from a plane Fall, like an astronaut from space Or an acrobat from making a mistake And what if all the sages Talking about realms out of reach Would memorize the pages Of gravity What if getting to the highest place is Like learning what you know Or like going to where you are now Like coming home Fall, like Adam falling down From the strange, unearthly angels whence he came Fall, finding a way of trusting in the ground As if the highest and the lowest places Are the same What if the highest destination Wasn't up above at all What if, to reach the highest place You had to fall What if you had to fall
