in a dream i spent the day with you
in a carriage built by blood
the clouds were singing songs of fear and loss
and they cut me down to size
and they cut me down to size

broken wings
have a home tonight
no one is listening, no one is listening
when darkness fell on the streets last night
we never expected, we never expected this

in a perfect world, i'd never know your name
and do we even know it when we die
or will death just pass us by
will death just pass us by
please just pass us by

broken wings
have a home tonight
no one is listening, no one is listening
when darkness fell on the streets last night
we never expected, we never expected this

when all this pain is justified
while all the time is passing by
now is when we clench our fists
knowing we can fight through this
the hours and the days are gone
the weeks and months are moving on
can't they see that's nothing gonna stop us now

broken wings
have a home tonight
no one is listening, no one is listening
when darkness fell on the streets last night
we never expected, we never expected this
