As the F#msun breaks above the ground
An old man stands on the hillA

A F#mbirdsong shatters the still
[Pre-chorus]
His F#meyes are aE/G#blaze

Fly as high Eas the F#msun
On your Eway like an Deagle

[Verse]
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God my father I'll fly
[Pre-chorus]
His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes, to ashes his grave

On your Eway like an Deagle
Fly, Etouch the F#msun
