lyrics

I woke to find my body covered head to toe in scars
In each mutilation I saw galaxies and stars

I woke to find my heart
Beaten, tattered, and alone
Conjuring old memories my mind had laid in stone

I said,
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay

A blind man walks a narrow path
Between a pit of fire
Not knowing he walks in inches from a burning funeral pyre

When then without a warning
The blind man gains his sight
Seeing his predicament
His legs freeze in fright

He sings
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay

Out of the black a voice calls out says blind man don't you cry
Don't you know that you have wings
And all you gotta do
Is fly

Fly, ay, ay, ay
Fly, ay, ay, ,ay

I woke to find my body covered head to toe in scars,
In each mutilation I saw galaxies
And stars
