White Wings Lyrics

I could've sworn that you had big white wings

To fly across continents

Take apart what constance is

I could've sworn that you had softer lips

To spin your words to sound like truth

Unravel anyone who hears you

But you're not so big

Not so scary

Not so pure

And not so holy

You're just breath inside a body

Human things and no white wings

Human things and no white wings

I could've sworn that you had big white wings

To shield me from the bitter wind

Take apart what giving is

I could've sworn that you could read my mind

look through me like water

Still you move me, make me slip and make me spill

But you're not so big

Not so scary

Not so pure

And not so holy

You're just breath inside a body

Human things and no white wings

Human things and no white wings
