My Wings Carry Me

As I soar over the world in flight
I fly over every land and sea
And through every trouble
My wings carry me

I love to feel the rush of air
Soaring makes me feel so free
I look down at what lies below
As my wings carry me

As I’m soaring up above
Famine and sorrow is all that I see
In the world that lies below
Yet my wings still carry me

I don’t ever want to go there
And be part of such debris
Their troubles aren’t my concern
Because my wings still carry me

Whatever happened to their wings I do not know
I just care that I still have mine thankfully
As long as I stay away, I won’t be like them
As long as my wings still carry me

Suddenly I begin to feel heavy
I am now affected by gravity
I can’t fly anymore; I’m drowning in air
My wings can’t carry me

I’m falling now, faster and faster
When I land, I’ll become another casualty
I am now helpless; I’m one of them
And my wings are no longer with me
