Feathery Wings Lyrics - Almost Human - Voltaire

You, there on the bridge 

where have you been, whats your name? 

and you, there you on the wall 

where will you go to once you fall? 

you, lost at sea 

do you need me, do you need directions? 

hey, put down the gun 

what are you thinking? 

you were someone's son 

the taste of tears 

the sting of pain 

the smell of fear 

the sounds of crying 

a long, long time ago i fell to this place 

from another dimesnion 

and thrust amongst the beasts 

and they way they behave borders on dementia 

now through all these years 

i can barely take it 

i don't think i can make it 

take me away from here 

I want to go home 

i'm so sick and tired of the 

the taste of tears 

the sting of pain 

the smell of fear 

the sounds of crying 

as you standing at the edge of your life 

what do you remember? 

was it all you wanted? 

I'm trying to earn a set of feathery wings 

i wish i could protect you here 

oh, please don't cry 

now smile as you're standing 

at the edge of your life 

your troubles are over 

mine are just beginning 

I'm trying to earn a set of feathery wings 

to take me away from here 

its me you leave behind 

if only i could have been there 

i'd be a hand for the sinking 

if only i could have been there 

i'd be a prayer for the dying 

see the pain etched in my face 

i'm so sick and tired of 

the taste of tears 

the sting of pain 

the smell of fear 

the sounds of crying 

as you're standing at the edge of your life 

what do you remember was it all you wanted 

I'm trying to earn a set of feathery wings 

i wish i could protect you here 

oh, please don't cry 

now smile as you're standing 

at the edge of your life 

your troubles are over 

mine are just beginning 

I'm trying to earn a set of feathery wings 

to take me away from here 

its me you leave 

you're gone from here 

don't leave from here 

don't leave me here 

I hate it here 

you're gone from here 

don't leave me here 

I need you here 

I need to see you smile
