About the Artist
Lyrics
I've waited for this moment, all my life and more And now I see so clearly what I could not see before The time is now or never and this chance won't come again Throw caution and myself into the wind There's no promise of safety on these second-hand wings But I'm willing to find out what impossible means A leap of faith Parody of an angel, miles above the sea I hear the voice of reason screaming after me "You've flown far too high, boy, now you're too close to the sun Soon your makeshift wings will come undone" But how will I know limits from lies If I never try? There's no promise of safety on these second-hand wings But I'm willing to find out what impossible means I'll climb through the heavens on feathers and dreams 'Cause the melting point of wax means nothing to me Nothing to me Nothing to me I will touch the sun or I will die trying Die trying Fly on these second-hand wings I'm willing to find out what impossible means I'll climb through the heavens on feathers and dreams 'Cause the melting point of wax means nothing to me Nothing to me It means nothing to me Miles above the sea
