10,000 Days (Wings Pt 2) |
| We listen to the tales and romanticize, |
| How we'd follow the path of the hero. |
| Boast about the day when the rivers overrun, |
| How we rise to the height of our halo. |
| Listen to the tales as we all rationalize, |
| Our way into the arms of the savior. |
| Feigning all the trials and the tribulations. |
| None of us have actually been there, |
| Not like you... |
| Ignorant siblings in the congregation. |
| Gather around spewing sympathy, |
| Spare me... |
| None of them can even hold a candle up to you. |
| Blinded by choice, these hypocrites won't see. |
| But enough about the collective Judas. |
| Who could deny you were the one who illuminated |
| Your little piece of the divine? |
| And this little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me |
| I'm gonna let it shine |
| To guide you safely on your way. |
| Your way home... |
| Oh, what are they gonna do when the lights go down? |
| Without you to guide them all to Zion? |
| What are they gonna do when the rivers overrun |
| Other than tremble incessantly? |
| High is the way, |
| But our eyes are upon the ground. |
| You are the light and the way. |
| They'll only read about. |
| I only pray heaven knows, |
| When to lift you out. |
| 10,000 days in the fire is long enough. |
| You're going home... |
| You're the only one who can hold your head up high. |
| Shake your fist at the gates saying, |
| "I've come home now! |
| Fetch me the spirit, the son and the father. |
| Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. |
| It's time now! |
| My time now! |
| Give me my |
| Give me my wings!" |
| Give me my |
| Give me my |
| Give me my |
| Give me my |
| Give me my |
| Give me my wings |
| You are the light, the way, |
| That they will only read about. |
| Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance. |
| Burden of proof tossed upon the believers. |
| You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence, |
| Judith Marie, unconditional one. |
| Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence. |
| Difficult to see you in this light. |
| Please forgive this bold suggestion. |
| Should you see your maker's face tonight, |
| Look him in the eye. |
| Look him in the eye and tell him, |
| "I never lived a lie, never took a life, |
| But surely saved one. |
| Hallelujah |
| It's time for you to bring me home." |
