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
