Ballad Of Sebastian Jackson Lyrics by WALK THE MOON

The Other Side: B-Sides and Rarities

2009

Working hard and dreaming heavy
So Sebastian waits with baited breath tonight
(Refrain)
Singing ooh
I am a man on the moon
Oh yeah, and I'm gonna fly
If I can just jump high enough
Cause he's breaking his back just to see that day
And it's taking him back to his childhood days
Never been so close to the stars before
And they're all laughing cause they think he's crazy
Did you know 'Bastian's talking in his sleep all night?
Singing ooh
I am a man on the moon
Oh yeah, and I'm gonna lift off
If I can just jump high enough
Oooh, mmm
Oh, Mr. Jackson why don't you step away from the edge
Before you wind up dead?
But he says "Oh no, thanks for asking, I'd rather be the same, lad
The same, so get out of my head."
He's wishing with his everything and breathing heavy
And with one jump Sebastian Jackson takes his life
Singing ooh
I am a man on the moon
Oh yeah, and I'm gonna fly
If I can just jump high enough
Cause he's breaking his back just to see that day
And it's taking him back to his childhood days
Never been so close to the stars before
Wondering every day that he wakes, could this be the day?
Woahh, oh no
Singing oooohh, the man on the moon
I'm gonna lift off if I can just jump high enough
Ohhhh
The man on the moon, I'm gonna fly
Just spread my wings and fly, I'll fly alright
I'm gonna fly
---
