On Wings

So I tried to chase you down
To be profound
But only found
The unforgiving ground

By all the blazing suns
The things I've done
The ones I won
They only swelled my tongue

Loneliness it comes in waves
Just like it used to come
When I was fearful of most things
And everyone

So I gathered all my things
I flew on wings
And traveled far
To catch a shooting star

And I held the shell up to
My ear to hear
The ocean's tide
That's when I felt alive

But everything that goes up
Must come down again
And the race we swore we won
We must begin again

I was reckless
And I traded all my good will
For good times
Now here I lie
Here I lie

So we'll see what new moons bring
We'll fly on wings
And travel far
To catch a shooting star
