bob lien - without having flown lyrics

[verse 1]
afraid to take a step from the doorway into a sunny world
he wonders if he’ll become as simple as he’s begun to feel from in his hallway
he thinks that he might be done thinking that there’s someone out there
hoping that he is numb enough to no longer care if he’s aware

[chorus]
and he folds his wings without having flown
and tucks them under his sleeves
he seats himself on this cold dark stone
with nothing to believe in

[verse 2]
a cautious step through the door reminds him there was another time
he knows he’s been here before and wonders what is in store if he neglects his longing
but even as it implores, a piece inside him decides to stay
and as he backs through the door into the shadow again he knows he can’t pretend

[chorus]
and he folds his wings without having flown
and tucks them under his sleeves
he seats himself on this cold dark stone
with nothing to believe in

as he sits in the night contemplating his final words
something brilliantly white comes along to ignite the deepest light inside him
staring into the sight of this he must concede
his desire for flight was just a fantasy he doesn’t need
[outro]
and he folds his wings without having flown
and tucks them under his sleeves
he meets himself after having known
all the ways he deceives himself
he stands and leaves his lonely stone
with simple steps on his beak
