The day I learn to fly
I'm never coming down
On perfect wings I'll rise
Through the layers of the cloudsRight from there
I see the neon grids of cities
And six million
People that keep their fires litI 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 youI see myself inside you
You dream the dreams that I do
You're still searching for these answers
They're not inside your wristRight from there
I see the neon grids of cities
And six million
People that keep their fires litI throw 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 youAnd 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 anymoreAnd 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
