Another day spent searching
Pause one moment and I die
Uniformity is smothering
In the fevered pitch of every cry

So if I lay prostrate before you
Throwing back my head
You would feast on my broken body
Then flee till your guilt was bled-

I'm just another face
In a thousand seas of white
I've seen the world and passed it by
For the lethal fog of night

You call to me past daybreak
Past shards of shadowed time
But I fly through a world that shuns my name
And was once wholly mine

And I see the mountains you swallow
And how readily you tire
But the rhythm of my labors
Does not hold for sole desire

I'm too young to fly, too old to climb
Three thousand miles on edge
So come and see if I finally soar
When I jump from the waiting ledge
