Lyrics
The day I learn to fly
I'm never coming down
On perfect wings I'll rise
Through the layers of the clouds
And from there
I see the neon grids of cities
Where six million
People that keep their fires lit
And 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 there
I see the neon grids of cities
Where six million
People that can keep their fires lit
And 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
And I close my eyes as the curtains shut
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
You're not there anymore
I just can't care anymore
