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 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 there 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
