The mood I'm in, I can't explainIs black and white, much worse than painThe fear of this, so clear, tonightIs next to me but not exactlyIt's obvious, so plain to seeThat I'm not as dumb as you'd like me to beI'll take my chance on your will tonightBut I won't fall off, so don't act tough, it's not enoughNo footsteps on the stair tonightNo cigarettes for me to lightNo heavy scented clothes to fall to the floorBut I'll hear you calling when you're not thereYou're walking on airDon't shame me now, just let me downBecause I've bled enough to paint this townFrom east to west, north to southThe leeches crawl from hand to mouthAnd now my strength is almost out, it's running outNo footsteps on the stair tonightNo cigarettes for me to lightNo heavy scented clothes to fall to the floorBut I'll hear you calling when you're not thereYou're walking on airNo footsteps on the stair tonightNo cigarettes for me to lightNo heavy scented clothes to fall to the floorBut I'll hear you calling when you're not thereYou're walking on, you're walking on, walking on air
