[Intro]
Teach me, so I can learn to fly
[Verse 1]
Once upon a broken day
My god above would throw away
The one thing that would open their eyes
The angel claim and looked away
I asked her why, she wouldn't say
My heroes died of overdose
I'm stuck here on this rollercoaster
And I don't wanna die but if I gotta
Can I wash these bloody hands in holy water?
[Pre-Chorus]
And she said broken hearts
When hopes just starts to fade away
It's safe to say it goes hand in hand
[Chorus]
And if your knees become weak
And you let the devil in
Then the hurt inside will never end
You better pray and pray to the god you seek
And learn to turn your cheek or die
[Post-Chorus]
You could learn to fly
[Verse 2]
I asked her why this awful place
She cried and tried to hide her face
And said she couldn't leave 'til I fly
Ooh, I told her all I need is faith
At least that's all I thought it takes
She told me I was sent to save lives
[Pre-Chorus]
And she said broken hearts
When hopes just starts to fade away
It's safe to say it goes hand in hand
[Chorus]
And if your knees become weak
And you let the devil in
Then the hurt inside will never end
You better pray and pray to the god you seek
And learn to turn your cheek or die
[Post-Chorus]
You could learn to fly
[Outro]
And God, won't you commend my soul?
I promise to defend your throne
This ain't my time to send me home
Teach me, so I can learn to fly
