v.1
As the sun breaks above the ground
An old man stands on a hill
As the ground warms to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still
His eyes are ablaze, see the madman in his gaze

Chorus:
Fly on your wings, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your wings like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun

v.2
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
"In the name of God, my father, I fly!"
His eyes seem so glazed as he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows, his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes, to ashes his grave
