All i need now is some golden wings that i may fly But it drops down on me this weight of time And the pain in their eyes I crawled along my cracked and narrow path And saw my reflection in some broken glass It was blood red blood red and it said That the years they stay and then move on And like yesterday you have come and gone You reached an end But I know that even though there is summer There is also a fall The cold will stay the warmth will leave (whispers) If to live is to sin then this must be done For whatever you do is evil to someone But it's killing me it's killing me So I'm headed out to that road that winds forever and ever But it drops down on me the weight of time And the pain in their eyes Standing here on my freedoms shore There is nothing left there is nothing more Than to rise so high and then to fall Some songs are prayers and this one prays "it is better to live free for a moment than a Slave for a day" So just fade away Fade away Fade away
