I flew too high from the ground
And lost my way back home
Alone
And left without a choice
Since desperation stole my voice

You raised my arms up to the sky
To show a way for me to fly
You gave me shelter from the cold
Your love consumed my soul
And made me want for more

The great escape
Out from this life
A fearless reach for diving
Where love lays
Wrapped in blood
The great escape
Out from this life
A step towards the night
Where my heart bleeds open wide

I burned myself with the flame
Too strong for me to tame
And the wind
Can't carry me so far
My wings have burned to scars

An angel with burned out wings
