Vesperteen - Feathers So Hollow

Spitting at cars on the overpass
Tryin to find a way out
Living it up in the underground
Hoping to open my mind
Lookin at heroes and vagabonds
And thinking of how they tried
Sipping the tears of the wild and sentimental
Faking their way through life

So I drink in my car till I can't see your face
But I can see just enough to get by
And I'm hit with my sin like a kiss on the wind. I can smile with the dirt in my eye

But I think I'm ready to fly
Are you ready tonight

Sleeping inside a refinery
Rubbing the heat from my eyes
Shaken awake but the dream is never over
I'm running against the tide
But I plead and I want. All the freeways are haunted by the fear that I saw in your face
So I bleed and I fold all the cards that I hold
And I trade in the greed for some grace

But I think I'm ready to fly
Are you ready tonight

I've spent too many years living inside my own head. Lying to myself and those I love
The light of reality hits me like a car crash. I'm thrown through the windshield but I don't hit the ground. I just keep flying. I'm flying on wings of humility carried by winds of forgiveness. I'm ready live. I'm ready to die. I'm ready to fall. I'm ready to fly

Flicking the day from your cigarette
Trying to shed some light
Breaking the backs of the demons on my shoulders
Throwing them to the night
