lyrics

Flight
Lyrics by Justin Perkins, Music by John Thomas

It's gray outside today, the day I turn away,
What did you say?……. Mean to say

Too many times before, I see you at the door
Taking something more

Seeing different skies, born behind these eyes
One more taking flight to climb into the night

So keep that curtain drawn, smile like nothing's wrong
Waste away…….a little more

Trembling in the light, survival without a fight,
Is there no other way to run away?

Seeing different skies, born behind these eyes
One more taking flight to climb into the night

Never to be found, seal yourself away
Body with no sound, shadow day to day
Push up from the ground as wider eyes can see
Help you turn around and find what is and what will be

In the coming light, I am not afraid
Watch these colors burn and smile on yesterday

Seeing different skies, born behind these eyes
One more taking flight to climb into the night
One day I will be the one to fly away
