I clipped my own wings and fell through the earth
Standing still, the butterflies have flown
Feeling nothing no more, I'm undoing my dreams
Frittering away the tatters of life
I'm a shaking quaking half dead corpse
My thoughts once thrusting for the breeze
Lie shattered and crushed upon the tiles
I clipped my own wings and fell through the earth
Nothing to catch me, and no-one to save me
I was the lost before I began
I have less than when I arrived
My wings are as dust at my feet
And my face is covered with shame
My body is battered, bruised and torn
I'm the last, unprepared repentant fool
Rooted to this mortal coil
Fixed upon the ground
Just like you
