"Flying Into Darkness" lyrics

"Flying Into Darkness"

I was flying into darkness
Through the midnight air
Didn't know where
But I was going there
Stars all around me
And the planets beamed
Messages from epochs
Wasn't listening
I had "Once in a Lifetime"
On repeat
Hurtling through space
With my metal wings
Were the Northern Lights
Cradling my head
When will I be grounded?
When I'm dead?

Is there a place I can go
Where I can be myself?
Is there a song I'll sing
That I'll never sell?
Every restless soul
Every one of us
What are we doing?
When can we rest
When can we rest

Turn to love
Turn to the earth
Turn to each other
Turn to rebirth
No more masters
No more greed
Planting evil
Seed after seed
Every restless soul
Every one of us
Is there a place we can go
Where we can trust?
I was flying into darkness
In the midnight air
Didn't know where
But I was going there

Is there a place I can go
Where I can be myself?
Is there a song I'll sing
That I'll won't sell?
Every restless soul
Every one of us
What are we doing?
When can we rest
When can we rest
When can we rest

When can we rest
When can we rest
When can we rest

When can we rest
When can we rest
When can we rest
