Dear friend don't look for me after this fall I tried to fly, broken wings and all There for just a min I got to fly Way up there in the brilliant blue sky But just like Icarus I flew to close to the sun I was at long last having fun I was in love with the warmth, the glow The light blinded me, I didn't know which way to go
So it seems I just flew higher Knowing full well the plunge would be dire But I had to feel the wind once more Before I was washed up on that rocky shore
But now comes the uncontrolled decent For I have found nothing is heaven sent It all comes from the dark side The demons love to watch the drop, the slide They love to hear the heart change pace The look of desperation on my face As I plunge from what I thought was God's grace But it's always just an illusion from my fellow race
Thinking someone likes me, and can hear my plea Thinking someone truly loves me, and can see It always ends way to suddenly, demon sent atrocities They always seem to be
So I made my broken wings work One last time, with one last **** I wasn't disappointed The union was not anointed I knew the end was near The bells tolling I could hear But I ignored it and climbed higher skyward I know I will be nothing in this life but a byword
