Waitin for the day to come around Waitin for the day to come around The darkest of skies came over this night I'm just waitin for the day to come around My mind sold my soul to settle down But I was running when I fell and hit the ground I was running from the past But it never seems to last It always catches up, hunts you down Now I'm searching for a feather To learn me the science of flight No matter the weather I can float my way out of the night Well I heard the cries of the injured men And I saw the wounded on the land And I told 'em there's hope You can learn how to cope If you can pick apart the gems from the sand And I told them to search for a feather To learn them the science of flight And no matter the weather You can float your way out of the night I found myself a feather And learned me the science of flight And no matter the weather I can float my way out of the night Gonna float my way out of the night Gonna float my way out of the night
