lyrics

Reaching out for falling sand
The clock, it ticks for the fallen man
And I feel my eyes see into forever
I'll fall away into the sky
And never wonder why

And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die

Featherfall into the madness
Gods are standing in my way again
All I wanted were some answers
I've manifested destiny
Unsurreptitiously

And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die

I once felt the fear of dying
Just echoes of a life before - no more
Long since have I given up trying
Yet still can't resign, accept my fate
Before it's too late

And maybe some day
I'll spread my wings and fly
From some far away
You'll hear an eagle's cry
And I've heard her pray
Oh please don't let him die
Yeah they always say
No he ain't gonna die
