Costumes for Saints

Push up to the edge and see down
How far to the ground
A final fall could make or break you

Searching for strength to feed from
Where you turn to could become
Somewhere or leave you lost inside

Walking with our wounds on fire
We’ve all been the thief and the liar
Longing so long to change

You’re flying with the wind
A freedom you have found within
You may have traveled far or not at all

Release your wings
Take flight
Fully span
Enter the night
Through a canvass black
You’re cracking daylight in now

Breaking things to heal for our sake
When pushed to the edge
The chance is to take
We’re longing so long to change
These horns for wings
Beneath these costumes for saints

We never tire of finding fault outside our own
Scared of heights from our own throne
A fear to fall
And to be alone
