I walk the streets where I regret, ah, ah, ah
I stood along and watched myself fall apart
And said the voices in my head, ah, ah, ah
Slipped through the chain link of a broken heartAnd when I'm tired of feeling black
Spread the wings upon your back
Take us high above it all
Stroke your feathers until we fall
Back down again, ah, ah, ahBut everything that sounded good, ah, ah, ah
I understand that I'll be misunderstoodAnd when I'm tired of feeling black
Spread the wings upon your back
Take us high above it all
And stroke your feathers until we fall
Until we fall, until we fall back down again
Yeah, back down againWhat do you feel before you think?
What do you see before you blink?
Who do you battle in your dreams?
Who strokes your feathers until you scream?And when I'm tired of feeling black
Spread the wings upon your back
Take us high above it all
And stroke your feathers until we fall
Until we fall, until we fall back down again
Yeah, back down again
