Carried Away On Uncertain Wings Lyrics - Tourniquet

A final declaration from my deathbed podium 

Last words of a dying man to a dying world 

Lived a life built by my own hands 

Travelled far and wide to find myself 

Foolishness turned joy to pain in time 

'til I was left with only tears 

So many ways for the blind to follow 

All that remains, a hollow void unfilled 

The plans I made have come apart at the seams 

Got carried away on uncertain wings 

I lay in this bed of brokenness 

With my last breath I bid farewell 

Life flashes before my eyes 

I choke on regret with no surprise 

What of your life, open up your eyes and see 

The narrow gate far away from those who stray 

The path is wide, I hear the Sirens sing 

You'll be carried away on uncertain wings 

Time has all run out, no more life to live 

When the heart no longer beats the blood 

Nothing more to give 

When your soul is troubled, your will begins to sink 

Call out to the One who created all things 

No more aimless wandering, wasting your life 

Don't be carried away on uncertain wings 

Surrender all to Him, nothing else to gain 

Empty cup now filled with hope 

Living by His grace 

When your soul is troubled, your will begins to sink 

Call out to the One who created all things 

No more aimless wandering, wasting your life 

Don't be carried away on uncertain wings
