The Heights
The Heights - Paint The Sky lyrics
Your rating:
Without you I am lost Your words a calm embrace I gave up everything for the chance And these scars are my reward Tell me what it takes To be the man I want to be Tell me the words to speak So I can do no wrong The streets are calling to us The expanse where I lay to rest So close you see the whites of my eyes What lies behind is yours Your words ring in my ears Your touch burns my skin Let thoughts paint the sky So I can feel my worth Let your fears be winged Take to flight to catch me The land the ocean the distance The beauty of creation lies ahead Tear off your skin To reveal fragile bones That lie underneath You're so easy to break As a spark to scorched earth One small flame leads to fires "Make not dreams my master" "Make not thoughts my aim" "I have met with triumph and disaster" "And treated them (just) the same" "Bear to hear the truth I've spoken" "Mine is the earth and everything within" We were the fallen We take to flight [Words in "" are taken from 'If' by Rudyard Kipling]
