lyrics

Waxen wings in maiden flight,
Oh, scratching at the ceiling, fingers losing feeling,
Built to reach for greater heights,
Oh, where the wind is blowing, never see it coming

Shining beacon in the night,
Oh, I can hardly see it, choking in the distance,
While they reach towards the sky,
I'll wait until the morning to fly into the morning sun

I'll wait until the morning, I'll wait until the morning sun,
Now that we have fallen we're flying closer to the sun

Build it up then shoot it down,
Oh, breaking like clay pigeons, cracked to little pieces,
Highly strung become unwound,
Oh, falling from the heavens, crashing into buildings,

Coming back to solid ground,
Oh, I have reached the finish, this is my beginning,
While they reach towards the sky,
I'll wait until the morning to rise up like the morning sun

I'll wait until the morning, I'll wait until the morning sun,
Now that we have fallen we're flying closer to the sun
