Wax and Feathers Lyrics

[00:02.37]	My father burned the midnight oil,
[00:13.61]	gluing together wax and feathers.
[00:24.77]	When he was through,
[00:29.95]	I looked like Gabriel—
[00:35.62]	a little tattered,
[00:38.31]	a little weathered.
[00:47.04]	It wasn’t the sun that melted my wings,
[00:56.52]	so close I could hear the angels sing.
[01:09.55]	The injustice of disbelief
[01:18.99]	dropped me from the heavens’ canopy.
[01:31.72]	Thrown to the sky
[01:36.73]	like a stone from a sling,
[01:42.96]	dropped like lead to the arms of the sea.
[01:54.24]	I rest my head on the ocean floor.
[02:05.56]	You walk above me.
[02:16.60]	It wasn’t the sun that melted my wings,
[02:26.29]	so close I could hear the angels sing.
[02:39.12]	The misfortune of disbelief
[02:48.58]	dropped me from the heavens’ canopy.
