Shards, Pt. III: Gravity - Scardust

I wait for gravity to show me how I cannot move

There are some secrets to the voice that I hear in my

Head

I dream to reach the stars, but honestly I cannot prove

That I can fly

Afraid of heights

I wait for the sun

I wait for the sun to burn my precious wings

For I won’t fly at night

Washing away my dreams with the tides

In feathers and wax

I reach for the skies

Secretly hoping to burn and die

For failure is not an option

Oh, why would I dare to try?

We waited for this day so long that our minds have gone

Beyond the towering skies beneath our dreaded home

Stumbling on ivory dreams, delusional fantasies where we

Fly on

On to the open fields

Where they belong

Hearts drawn to the distance

Minds lost in misery

Afraid of heights

I wait for the sun

I wait for the sun to burn my precious wings

For I won’t fly at night

Washing away my dreams with the tides

In feathers and wax

I reach for the skies

Secretly hoping to drown and die

For failure is not an option

Let the winds take you high

Lift your eyes to the sky

And though dawn will come soon

You can still touch the moon
