Rise Against - Heaven Knows lyrics

The day I learn to fly ,

I'm never coming down

on perfect wings I'll rise

through the layers of the clouds

and from there I see the neon grids of cities

and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name

but the hours crawled by and no one came

so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings

to take me from this place... from you

I see myself inside,

you dream the dreams that I do,

you're still searching for these answers,

they're not inside your wrist

and from there I see the neon grids of cities

and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name

but the hours crawled by and no one came

so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings

to take me from this place... from you

I close my eyes as the curtains draw,

I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong,

'cause you're not there anymore,

no you're not there anymore

and so I lift my chin

and the show goes on,

the sky is listening, the stars all sing along,

but you're not there anymore,

and I just can't care anymore
