I walk the streets where I regret, ah-ah-ah I stood along and watched myself fall apart And said the voices in my head, ah-ah-ah Slipped through the chain link of a broken heart And when I'm tired of feeling black Spread the wings upon your back Take us high above it all Stroke your feathers 'til we fall back down again, ah-ah-ah But everything that sounded good, ah-ah-ah I understand that I'll be misunderstood And when I'm tired of feeling black Spread the wings upon your back Take us high above it all Stroke your feathers 'til we fall Until we fall, until we fall back down again Yeah, back down again What do you feel before you think? What do you see before you blink? Who do you battle in your dreams? Who strokes your feathers 'til you scream? And when I'm tired of feeling black Spread the wings upon your back Take us high above it all And stroke your feathers 'til we fall Until we fall, until we fall back down again Yeah, back down again
