For some on earth
Hope is only temporary
For they are easily let down
For me hope is eternal
Because I refuse to give up
I refuse to give in
I deserve that which is great

Just to make it clear
I'm only being sincere
Throwing my words in the sky
Speaking without knowing why
Don't care of what you think
Say what I say without a blink
I am always honest and true
I stay the same, it's nothing new
But just to make it clear
I'm only being sincere

Call for that which moves today above your broken wings
with perfect timing familiar as your dreams.
Tonight, what is true will not accuse how you feel
or tell you what to write
in a torrent of questioning schemes.

Declare that I have something the world loves to place
in glass windows forever to be considered
as part of their past.
To once again be able to face themselves
in the morning and have the will to claim
something that will last.

Tell me that the air I breathe is full of wonder and new life
that no nightmare could ever ask
to be part of its story.
When I sit in the moonlight
let me inhale with devotion
instead of spinning inside a shadow’s quarry.

Remember nothing but that which you hear singing
from a soul with no fear,
a sound more beautiful than the wind.  
It flows like a drink from a cup,
almost deeper than love itself
when seen through the eyes of that which moves
above your broken wings.
