Broken Wings

I remember the feeling of open air
From when you first lifted me and taught me to fly
Even as I'm reeking of disdain and despair
I remember the wings that you gave me
Before you broke them and left me to die
Before you broke them and left me to die
They say the devil was an angel
Before he fell from grace
I see history likes to repeat itself
After you choked me with your halo
And horns took its place
A serpent's tongue found a vacant ear in my absence
An angel sent to bring me to life
Poisoned by a snake that craved your wings
Plucked them out and left you to break mine
I know a heart lies within that can heal them again
If you can help me heal mine
Together we can ascend
We'll take a running start
Place your hand in mine
We'll take a leap of faith and pray
We'll pray these broken wings fly
The devil found a home in my broken soul as well
Every step that I took led me further to hell
I'll burn everyone and everything around me
But first I'll make your weary heart bleed
I'll make your weary heart bleed
My malice and spite knows no equal
Hatred and revenge growing to be infinite
You showed me where you were weak
I'll show you the devil incarnate
Do you remember the feeling of open air
From when I first lifted you and taught you to fly
I remember I gave you such disdain and despair
When I broke your wings and left you to die
When I broke your wings and left you to die
Maybe we'll never fly again
Maybe it's just as well
I just hope we can take back our lives
Whether through heaven or hell
We'll take a running start
Place your hand in mine
We'll take a leap of faith and pray
We'll pray these broken wings fly

Left drowning and hopeless
In all your sorrow and doubt
Don't let it take you over
I know you can find a way out
You think your valleys sit too deep
And your mountains too high
Take a look and see that there is still hope
You will survive
You will survive
You think your valleys sit too deep
And your mountains too high
Just take a look and see that there is still hope
Just take a look and see
Just take a look and see
You will survive
The grip you once had on sanity
Is only just a memory
Stop dwelling on the fucking past
You can't have it back
There's nothing left to do
There's nothing left to do, just
Move, push, make your way to higher ground
Breathe, live, a better place can be found
Move, push, make your way to higher ground
Breathe, live, a better place can be found
Believe in these words
You can't be brought down
There is a strength within us all
What makes you weak will make you strong
I see you crying
Out for help
Only you can help yourself
You can't always rely on everyone else
Let it all rain out
Leave nothing of what you used to be
Just make the pain drown
Leave nothing but a memory
Stand tall and give me all that you've got
You think you're weak
I think you still got a shot
To be something and make a difference
Don't let this be
Where your story ends
Don't let this be
Where your story ends

I just keep on waiting to die
I could never really call this much of a life
All of my failures
Have paved me a future of pain
I wanna call it quits
I want a shallow grave
I wanna see the end of this
I want no one to remember my name
These eyes fail to see beyond the dark horizon
But I can't stop trying
It's hard to believe I haven't already sealed my fate
Or do I just need to pick up the pace
Oh, let me stop and rest
I'm so fucking tired
I have envy for death
Please tell me there's something left
This is just act one
The next stage has been set
I just want to sleep
A subtle escape from this reality
I just want to sleep
Just a moment breathe
There's only one way
To achieve
The life I want to lead
There's no fucking rest for me
I'm carried by these broken wings
I'll find the strength to pull these shackles around my feet
When my strength is fleeting
I have to remember
To just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
No matter the struggle of life
I'd rather stand and fight
Than be a coward
Waiting to die
