Spread my wings

SPREAD MY WINGS (E A D G B D#)

 


Let’s not do that today. It won’t hurt us. It might do good.

Wrapped up underneath a clear night. On our backs, such bright eyes glimmering through the sky.

 

If it’s hard. If it makes me sad. If I give it all I had then what’s left?

Watching as the sky spins round. Lying on the grass, somehow. Spread my wings, I’m ready now.

 

Spread my wings, I’m ready now to lift myself up off the ground. A steady hand won’t bring me down. Watching the earth spin around. Spread my wings, I’m ready now.

 

I can’t see a way out anymore. But I know it was there before. And I know what real darkness looks like.
