04 - 10,000 Days (Wings Part 2)

[00:49.08] Listen to the tales and romanticize

[00:53.79] How we'd follow the path of the hero

[01:01.16] Boast about the day when the rivers overrun

[01:06.66] How we rise to the height of our halo

[01:13.60] Listen to the tales as we all rationalize

[01:18.69] Our way into the arms of the savior

[01:25.75] Feigning all the trials and the tribulations;

[01:30.61] None of us have actually been there

[01:37.53] Not like you

[02:26.86] Ignorant fibbers in the congregation

[02:32.11] Gather around spewing sympathy

[02:35.60] Spare me

[02:39.24] None of them can even hold a candle up to you

[02:44.01] Blinded by choice, these hypocrites won't see

[02:51.05] But, enough about the collective Judas

[02:54.08] Who could deny you were the one who

[02:56.54] Illuminated your little piece of the divine?

[03:03.82] And this little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me

[03:07.92] I'm gonna let it shine to guide you safely on your way

[03:15.45] Your way home ...

[03:51.98] Oh, what are they going to do when the lights go down

[03:58.31] Without you to guide them all to Zion?

[04:05.17] What are they going to do when the rivers overrun

[04:10.43] Other than tremble incessantly?

[04:15.44] High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground

[04:23.60] You were the light and the way they'll only read about

[04:31.60] I only pray, Heaven knows when to lift you out

[04:39.68] Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough;

[04:44.90] You're going home

[05:10.93] You're the only one who can hold your head up high

[05:15.48] Shake your fists at the gates saying:

[05:18.79] "I've come home now!

[05:22.46] Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father

[05:26.26] Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended

[05:30.90] It's time now!

[05:32.75] My time now!

[05:34.99] Give me my, give me my wings!"

[07:23.59] Give me my, give me my wings!"

[08:14.48] You are the light and way that they will only read about

[08:35.55] Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance

[08:39.95] (With the) burden of proof tossed upon the believers

[08:43.43] You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence

[08:47.29] Judith Marie, unconditional one

[09:49.21] Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescents

[10:00.27] Difficult to see you in this light

[10:08.64] Please forgive this bold suggestion, but

[10:18.84] Should you see your Maker's face tonight

[10:28.95] Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:

[10:38.42] "I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one

[10:48.01] Hallelujah, it's time for you to bring me home."
