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
And six million people that keep their fires lit
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
You're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist
And from there I see the neon grids of cities
And six million people that keep their fires lit
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 close my eyes as the curtains draw
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
But you're not there anymore
And I just can't care anymore
