Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw a road and I let it take me down
Never made it back around
To the end.
[Verse 2]
The path as it weaved took me away from myself
Let me play somebody else
Even for a moment.
[Pre-chorus]
If I had wings
If I had wings to take me higher
Would I take the higher ground?
Or would I stay close to the fire?
[Chorus]
When it's all said and done
Will I stand in the sun
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
If my heart needs to mend
If I'm my only friend
I won't cry over you
I'm done crying for you
Oh, oh
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
[Verse 2]
The home that I built started shaking night and day
Then crumbled all the way
To the foundation.
[Verse 3]
Alone in the grave filled with pieces of my soul
If I let myself let go
Would I have made it?
[Pre-chorus]
If I had wings
If I had wings to take me higher
Would I take the higher ground?
Or stay close to the fire?
[Chorus]
When it's all said and done
Will I stand in the sun
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
If my heart needs to mend
If I'm my only friend
I won't cry over you
I'm done crying for you
Oh, oh
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
[Bridge]
The darkness that tugged at me, I let it light the way.
Hiding behind all the shadows just trying to say
"We keep you blind to a world open wide"
[Chorus]
When it's all said and done
I will stand in the sun
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
If my heart needs to mend
If I'm my only friend
I won't cry over you
I'm done crying for you
Oh, oh
I'm done crying for you
I'm done crying for you
Oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
If I had wings
If I had wings to take me higher
I would take the higher ground
Instead of burning in the fire
