In My Wings
I love the most a crimson winter sky, through empty trees I rest my eyes I love the least a cynic and his sneer, a poison tongue, a twisted game, all fed by fear
But in the thin young moon so sharp upon the dusk I see a promise there in the glow for all of us I wave hello as she glides past my open window
Counterfeit I was in company of men, unsure of how to speak my heart and be a friend And hungry is the past to light my future way but I've found joy and mystery In my present day
And in my wings I'm alive, in my skin I survive I came here to fall without fear... to belong
And so remains a want that has no name, a silent drum, a distant pulse, inside my veins Traveller I'll be, in spirit world I'll see my soul is free to gaze across the centuries
And in my wings I'm alive, in my skin I survive I came here to fall without fear... to belong
And in the starry script I find my destiny And the ghost I meet on the stairs is really only me I wave hello, as she glides through my open window
And in my wings I'm alive, in my skin I survive I came here to fall without fear... to belong
I came here to belong to the race of humans, I came here to belong without fear of love We came here to belong to the race of humans, we came here to belong without fear of love I came here to belong to the race of humans, we came here to belong without fear of love
I'll speak my heart and be your friend, will you be mine too?
