Broken Wings Lyrics
In a dream I spent the day with you
in a carriage bought by blood.
The clouds were singing
songs of fear and loss.
And they cut me down to size
and they cut me down to size.
(Chorus)
Broken wings have a home tonight.
No one is listening. No one is listening.
When darkness fell on the streets last night,
We never expected, we never expected this.
In a perfect world, I’d never know your name.
And do we even know it when we die,
Or will death just pass us by, will death just pass us by.
Please just pass us by.
(Chorus)
When all this pain is justified,
While all the time is passing by
Now is when we clinch our fists,
Knowing we can fight through this.
The hours and the days are gone.
The weeks and months are moving on.
Can’t they see that nothing’s gonna stop us now.
(Chorus x3)
We never expected this.
in a carriage bought by blood.
The clouds were singing
songs of fear and loss.
And they cut me down to size
and they cut me down to size.
Broken wings have a home tonight.
No one is listening. No one is listening.
When darkness fell on the streets last night,
We never expected, we never expected this.
And do we even know it when we die,
Or will death just pass us by, will death just pass us by.
Please just pass us by.
While all the time is passing by
Now is when we clinch our fists,
Knowing we can fight through this.
The hours and the days are gone.
The weeks and months are moving on.
Can’t they see that nothing’s gonna stop us now.
We never expected this.

this songs about the drummer scott who has leukemia, i was at taste of chaos last night and they were playing this song...it was amazing...so sad though and for bleed the dream:
FUCK CANCER!!!
in fact...i think he was suppose to get a bone marrow transplant today?? idk cant remember
Yes, It's about the drummer Scott... He died April 10th...The band will still carry on however. It's so sad...makes me extremely sad listening to the song now. It's beautiful. RIP Scott. "Broken wings have a home tonight." I love that line.
jeez this is song is amazing. sad yes . but dear god i love it. written about scott obviosly. "In a perfect world, I’d never know your name" i also thought that line meant like...in a perfect world he wouldn't have known him, he would have just been a stranger, and he woulnd't have to go through all this, but instead because like brothers and has to deal with his sickness..and death eventually
wow i meade a lot of mistakes. i meant "but instead they became like brothers"..ahh that makes so much more sense than because.
I saw Bleed the Dream last week at the Warped tour and earlier in march while they were on Taste of Chaos. Both times I have heard them play this song live they put so much energy and emotion into it. Even though their crowd was fairly small at Warped they got everyone that knew the words singing along. I don't think I really have a point... but whatever
before they played this song tonight...they were like this is for anyone who came her with a parent, friend, or best friend...they are here today, but you never know when they will be taken away from you and then he pointed to the sky and said RIP Scott...it gave me chills throughout the song and i seriously was close to crying...so sad...
i saw them at toc back in march and i saw them again recently at a local bar and they performed this song amazingly. it's a beautiful song. RIP Scott.
this is a really beautiful song.
This song is sooo amazing and deep, ive seen them live a couple times and everytime they play this song they get a huge reaction from the audience, they are a great band and i love the song! :(
