If I had Wings

When it seems like you’re swimming upstream and the world is against you…

IF I HAD WINGS

When we go down, down in flames
We will only have ourselves to blame
There’s no rule that we haven’t bent
Confess your sins, it’s time to repent

If I had wings I’d fly away to paradise
There’s nothing I would not do or sacrifice

Run from folly and love’s regret
Hide your shame and karmic debt
Things we do in self defense
Things that don’t make any sense

If I had wings I’d fly away to paradise
There’s nothing I would not do or sacrifice

Fractured logic but it sells
Like a wicked witch’s evil spell
Those empty promises are a shell
To lure us down the road to hell
