Wings

I stare up from the bed

And wish that I was dead

Instead of lying here with you in

This house that's like a tomb

I should be some where new

A new frontier a new horizon

Now I've got to get away

Now I've got to walk away

Find the words I've got to say

Finding the strength to walk like I talk

And walk away from you

If I had wings

I would fly away forever

In my dreams I'm not with you

Like an eagle in a noose

Like a coward when the truth is broken

In my new reality

I hold all the keys

And I decide which doors open

Now I've got to get away

Now I've got to walk away

Find the words I've got to say

Finding the strength to walk like I talk

And walk away from you

If I had wings

I would fly away forever

In my dreams the windows smash

From the dirt the broken glass

Shows me the reflections of dead faces

Midnight streets of blood and pain

The breath of hope that turns to chain

I take a knife and slice away all my hatred

Slice away the guilt and fear

And if I had the tears

Then I would try to cry an ocean

Waves that are ten feet tall

Crashing on the shore

Onto the rocks of my emotion

Now I've got to get away

Now I've got to walk away

Find the words I've got to say

Finding the strength to walk like I talk

And walk away from you

If I had wings

I would fly away forever
