Oh, I awoke with all the words
Dripping from my lips,
Hoping all my heroes hands
Had shed their skin of them.
'Cause all that's left inside of me -
Ideas I could not reason with,
The scenes of life that I'd miss,
The summer on her skin.
And everyone I know still has their wings,
And no one ever changes a thing for me,
And questions always sound the same and ask the same thing.
So I'll do all that I can to get free.
And there's no time to keep our toes in line,
But we all watch the world spin around us.
And we all know what it's worth to see our children come back home,
However long it takes.
