A Million Nights

I've had a million sleepless nights.
My wings are gone but my thoughts take flight.
I remember dark skies caving in around me.
I remember red tears falling to the ground.
Glass moments hit the ground and shatter.
Wings fail and feathers forms the clouds.
Blood paints the air as I fall.
The sky rains and I don't want it to stop.
Oh.
I've had a million sleepless nights.
My wings are gone, but the birds take flight.
I remember black skies, falling in around me.
I cant see through red tears,
But I'm falling to the ground.
Glass moments fall, and their pieces form the clouds.
I've heard a million different songs.
My will is breaking and the bars stay strong.
One more night. One more night.
I can hear the birds take flight.
One more day. One more day. I'll fly again. I'm on my way.
