[Verse] One by one they all took flight Left their heavy burdens on the earth Rose above the clouds and saw the light That's when they discovered what they're worth [Pre-Chorus] Like gods in a kingdom With the knowledge of good and evil They gazed on creation But they didn't see their equal [Chorus] And they wondered if it was The floating city They had heard of And they thought about All the people They had loved [Verse 2] One by one they came back down To the dirty world that they had known But some of them refused to go to ground And they decided to make it their home [Chorus] In the floating city That they had heard of And they thought about All the people They had loved
