(album: Thank God, There Are Hundreds of Ways To Kill Enemies - 2020)

The things in my eyes just slowly fade away
This pain never guides me wrong, so I will not stray
Should I stay here and pray to a statue in the shade?
I worry about today not the next decade

Let me up off my knees
I still believe there's something I need to see, yeah
Fly through the trees, over the seas
Searching everywhere to be free again

Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Don't call me a monster
I've just got my wings

Yeah, yeah, I've got the wings
Yeah, I've got the wings on my back now
Yeah, yeah, I've got the wings, got the wings on my back

No one knows what comes next after this straight
This cold always makes me feel isolated
Should I stay here and pray to change my fate
I am the one who opens the gate

Let me up off my knees
I still believe there's a place to be
I'm ready to leave here right now

Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Don't call me a monster
I've just got my wings

Break it
There's no time to cry
You think you've got me mesmerized
You won't even open my eyes

Don't preach, just give me attitude
Get going or freeze, do what you're supposed to do
No sleep, like it's the last night of your life

I'll draw lines before you
Trace me now, if you can somehow

Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Tell me what do you see when you see me?
Don't call me a monster
I've just got my wings

Yeah, yeah, I've got the wings
Yeah, I've got the wings on my back now
Yeah, yeah, I've got the wings, got the wings on my back
