Morning is a Long Way Down

Wrap your arms around me And hold me close to your light I'm too weak for flying tonight I've been running all nighttime Trying to hide from the hounds And morning is a long way down I was always the strongest So young and so fast I was always sure that it would last And now I'm stuck here at midnight And there's cliffs all around And morning is a long way down I never ask the hard questions I never try to transform I was always just waiting to be born But now the sun's tied with night-chains Like Prometheus, bound And morning is a long way down So wrap your arms around me And hold me close to your light I'm too weak for flying tonight But I don't care about nighttime Or the light that is gone If you'll just hold me 'til dawn
