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
(Where six million) people that keep their fires lit
And 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
And you're still searching for these answers
(Not inside your wrist)
(And from there) I see the neon grids of cities
(Where six million) people that can keep their fires lit
Yeah, 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
When I close my eyes as the curtain's drop
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
You're not there anymore
And I just don't care anymore
