Reflections Lyrics

All I need now is some golden wings
that I may fly
But it drops down on me, that weight of time
and the pain in their eyes
I crawled along a cracked and narrow path
I saw my reflection in some broken glass
It was blood red, blood red, and it said (and it said)
That the seasons change and then move on,
and like yesterday, you have come and gone
You have reached your end

And you know that even though
there's a summer, there is also a fall
(The cold will stay, the warmth will leave)
And to live is to sin, so this must be done
For whatever you do, it's still evil to someone
But it's killing me, it's killing me

So I'm headed out to that road that winds
forever and ever
Still it drops down on me, that weight of time
and the pain in their eyes

Standing here on my freedom's shore
There is nothing left, there is nothing more
(Than to rise so high and then to fall)
Some songs are prayers, and this one prays
to be free for the moment, not a slave to the day
To fade away
Fade away
Fade away
