lyrics

Closed in by walls
Skyscrapers like craters
Our memories are put to a halt
The world is silenced
Caught bumper to bumper
Palms swaying over the sprawl

Can my wings still fly?
In the chaos of banter
The crowd’s voice a wild echo
Told to surrender
I put on my armor
Swallowed by the storm, then let go

I’m high in the clouds
In the sky’s heavy debt
Legs dangling in ripples below
I let go of my feet
My wings a silhouette
As the sky turns violet and blue
