Wings from Painted Jezebel by Jessamyn Day

I've fallen too many times
now I'm calling out to you
I've fallen too many times
now I'm calling out to you

Can you
make these weakened wings fly again?
and these broken dreams mine again
lay it all down on the line again
feel I've been here now
time and time again

I tend to hide everything
so it's hard to find anything
common mime, I disguise everything
so it's hard to ask

Will you
make these weakened wings fly again?
And these broken dreams mine again
lay it all down on the line again
feel I've been here now
time and time again


To calm my fear, I need to hear, there’s someone near, i’m waiting here
heart hard and tough, you call my bluff
one simple touch is just enough
and all the lies I held inside
they finally have no place to hide
and I can hardly recognize myself, what is this science?
but I find you in the silence

I play these games of tug of war
you always want to give me more
I offer up my clenched hands
you lead me to the promised land
I know you too be kind and good
you hold me like a lover should
I hear your whisper in the night
you bring everything to life

You make these weakened wings fly again
and these broken dreams come alive again
I lay it all down on the line again
cause you've been here now
time and time again...
