I saw the ground through the eyes, Of a bird as I soared through the skies, And I knew that it wouldn't last long, Yeah, I knew I'd be comin' back home Well, I stained the Earth with blood, As it dripped all the way from above, Cause' I knew this chance would be gone, Yeah, I knew I'd be goin' back home

Shadows 03:47
Hey there sunshine, Where've ya been? Where've ya headed now? Come back again I know that you can see my fall, I know that you can't help at all, I know that I can make it through, but, This shadow seems to follow me around Hey there sunshine, How've ya been? Can you close your eyes now? Can you see the end? I know that you've been gone too long, I know that this has been my fault, I know that I can make it through, but, Your shadow seems to stick around I know that you can see my fall, I know that you can't help at all, I know that I can make it through, but, This shadow needs to find a home, This shadow needs to find it's home, This shadow needs to find a home

This life is an open book, Let's turn around, take a look, My dream is to fade away, Deep into the world today But in my mind, There's hope, And life's never gonna be the same, And I feel so alive, That the world around me dies, In my mind, There's hope, And that's never gonna go away, I need the world today I know my place, I feel a change, And I know that I can't rely, On permanence to be But in my mind, There's hope, And life's never gonna be the same, And I feel so alive, That the world around me dies, In my mind, There's hope, And that's never gonna go away, I need the world today

Impression 03:13
I thought it was the start, Of a new life, All it was, was a chance, To get it all straightened out, And what I thought was a new life, Was the change of a lifetime, And it left an impression on me I felt the cold wind, On my face, I was at the gates, Of a heavenly embrace, I changed the world with a touch, Man, It wasn't much, But it left an impression on me
