Sails

If you are the wind in my sails
And well able to lift me higher
I know that I'll ultimately fail
That's the truth, I'm not a liar
Unable to fly, can't reach the sky
Should I somehow find myself
Flying through the clouds
I'll crash down below
Hard upon fragile earth
I take anything better
And make it worse
It isn't hard to understand
My abilities are limited
Every effort ends in disaster
For my sins I've been consigned
To the lands of the utterly damned
