Leverage - Broken Wings lyrics

rate me

From the venues so grand<br />

Back to the slaughterhouse<br />

It's time to face my last stand<br />

The long waited last goodbyes<br />

'Cause it's really been long since I last heard my name<br />

Getting cheered at, not laughed and cursed<br />

Now I can see it<br />

There's nothing left for me anymore, oh<br />

<br />

Wake up and see the world has changed<br />

Now open your eyes, lonely rider<br />

Just a puppet in the show<br />

Do the only thing you know<br />

Just crawl to the end of your road<br />

<br />

Broken wings<br />

Broken wings<br />

I've lost my golden dreams<br />

I ask you one more time<br />

Just this one last time<br />

Fly me home, my broken wings<br />

<br />

If my feet were still young<br />

I'd win it all again<br />

If my arms were still strong<br />

I wouldn't be here today<br />

Has it really been years since I last played a fair game<br />

From the last steps on glory road<br />

Now I can see it<br />

There's nothing left for me anymore, oh<br />

<br />

Wake up and see the world has changed<br />

Don't lie to yourself, worn out fighter<br />

There's nothing left to do<br />

Than to go down when you're due<br />

Just crawl to the end of the road<br />

<br />

Broken wings<br />

Broken wings<br />

I've lost my golden dreams<br />

I ask you one more time<br />

Just this one last time<br />

Fly me home, my broken wings<br />

<br />

Broken wings<br />

Broken wings<br />

Forgive me that I can't win<br />

Please bear me through<br />

Last this one more flight<br />

Fly me home, my broken wings<br />

Finally, set me free<br />

<br />

As I step into the dark<br />

Will you be there for me<br />

I've been paid to take the fall<br />

Please forgive me<br />

Oh, Lord, I wish there was another way<br />

Just set me free
