Fall in flight, the view could kill    Just the ground to break your fall    Trading places only when    The sound of your wings quiets the night      So haste the day we waste away like you    And although the pain has left your chest    It seems it was transferred to the rest of us who stayed   (and lived to see another day)    So haste the day we waste away like you    So we don’t remain the only ones    Left broken staring at the sun    Is this the day?   (we’re given wings to fly away)      These returns are worth the risk    Punishment for terminal cases    Glancing at an empty shell    The swarming of your absence is scarring      So haste the day we waste away like you    And although the pain has left your chest    It seems it was transferred to the rest of us who stayed   (and lived to see another day)    So haste the day we waste away like you    So we don’t remain the only ones    Left broken staring at the sun    Is this the day?   (we’re given wings to fly away)      We wrote our names into the pavement    And made the best of what was dealt    We bet it all and came up empty    Perhaps we never tried enough,    But on the way we made a killing    With all the wealth we could not count    I’ll scream to both the grandest angels    Who got their wings four months apart…       So haste the day we waste away like you    And although the pain has left your chest    It seems it was transferred to the rest of us who stayed   (and lived to see another day)    So haste the day we waste away like you    So we don’t remain the only ones    Left broken staring at the sun    Is this the day?   (we’re given wings to fly away)
