The day I learn to fly, I'm never coming down
On perfect wings I'll rise through the layers of the clouds

And from here I see the neon grids of cities
And six billion people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
To take me from this place
From you

I see myself inside you, you dream the dreams that I do,
You're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist
And from here I see the neon grids of cities
And six billion people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
To take me from this place
From you

I close my eyes as the curtains draw,
I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong,
'cause you're not there anymore,
No you're not there anymore

And so I lift my chin and the show goes on,
The sky is listening, the stars all sing along,
But you're not there anymore,
And I just can't care anymore.
