On perfect wings I'll rise through the layers of the clouds
And from here I see the neon grids of cities
And six million people that keep their fires lit
I threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
To take me from this place... From you
I see myself inside you, you dream the dreams that I do,
You're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist
And from here I see the neon grids of cities
And six million people that keep their fires lit
I threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
To take me from this place... From you
I close my eyes as the curtains draw,
I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong,
'cause you're not there anymore,
No you're not there anymore
And so I lift my chin and the show goes on,
The sky is listening, the stars all sing along,
But you're not there anymore,
And I just can't care anymore.
Today I learned to fly, I'm never coming down On perfect wings I'll rise through the layers of the clouds And from here I see the neon grids of cities And six million people that keep their fires lit I threw a party in my name But the hours crawled by and no one came So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings To take me from this place... From you I see myself inside you, you dream the dreams that I do, You're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist And from here I see the neon grids of cities And six million people that keep their fires lit I threw a party in my name But the hours crawled by and no one came So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings To take me from this place... From you I close my eyes as the curtains draw, I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong, 'cause you're not there anymore, No you're not there anymore And so I lift my chin and the show goes on, The sky is listening, the stars all sing along, But you're not there anymore, And I just can't care anymore.
