"You are here. there must be others. Out there. Beyond this broken world. This child was left behind for a reason. that reason is you."

lyrics

Look away, oh Father, look away from me.
Fly away, oh Father, fly away from me.
Do you see, oh Father, do you see me from there.
Fly away, oh Father, fly away from me.

And now a story comes to mind.
About a man, his forge, his crime.
Nothing’s written down.
But it was told that he was kind.

Take your hands, oh Father, take your hands from me.
Take this pain, oh Father, take this pain from me.

On the wings of chaos, they came undone.
On these wings of chaos, they came undone.

Making wings of skin of bird and poison blades.
Innocence, belief and thistle down.
Love, shame, and war.
A child left behind.

Look away, oh Father, look away from me.
Fly away, oh Father, fly away from me.

On the wings of chaos, they came undone.
Let the heavens see.
On the wings of chaos, they came undone.
On these wings of chaos, they came undone.
(Alone under the moon, they cry)

Tell me a story won't you.
If fairytales are never true.
Then you won’t mind me.
If fairytales are never real.
Never you bother.
Tell me oh Father will you.
If fairytales are never true.
Then you won’t mind all my words.
Since fairytales are never real.
Since fairytales are never real.

It's a story of a man, wings of pride, a child he told to never fear.
Never fear.
Never fear the sky.

On the wings of chaos, they came undone.
Let the heavens see.
On the wings of chaos, they came undone.
On these wings of chaos, they came undone.
