Highway Dirt Wings

My wings are heavy and they're covered in the dirt
Every step
I take is just another world of hurt
I'm standing on the highway, praying for a light
A fallen shadow in the middle of the night
I'm reaching out, but they just drive by
Fake feathers broken, I'm too weak to fly
I've gotta reach you, I'm running out of time
I'm screaming at the wind, but no one hears the sound
I'm dragging all my failures on this frozen ground
I promised
I would guard you
I promised
I'd be there
But now
I'm breathing in the cold and empty air
I'm too far away
I'm losing the race
I'm staring at the ghost of your face
The oil and the rain are washing out my grace
Just a broken angel in a
God-forsaken place
These artificial wings don't mean a thing at all
I'm just a witness to my own eternal fight
I'm screaming at the wind, but no one hears the sound
I'm dragging all my failures on this frozen ground
I promised
I would guard you
I promised
I'd be there
But now
I'm breathing in the cold and empty air
I'm too far away
I'm losing the race
I'm staring at the ghost of your face
I'm almost there
Just turn on
I'm almost there
Everything is gone
My wings in the mud
I failed you
I'm sorry
I'm sorry hey
