Let Me Fall

Let me fall through the crimson sky
That has been so carefully made for me.
My heart longs for my wings to find the blue;
The clear skies in the eyes of you.
But I see no blue skies in the distance.
They have long since disappeared over the horizon
Despite my persistence
To reach them.

Forgive me.
This raven cannot fly fast enough
On two broken wings.
Oh how I miss how things were before.
I'm so sorry,
But I cannot fly anymore.

All I want is what I can't have
So let me settle for the next best thing.
Let me fall through the crimson sky.
I don't want to be saved.
I don't want to be saved
So please don't save me.
I am begging you.
I want to fall through the crimson sky,
Land in the lilies and die.
Let me land in the lilies
And die.
