[Verse 1]
Father, my wings are clipped
See the steps that made me trip
Now I'm so lonely
Mother, time's frozen flame
Seem to linger in the rain
Holding me only
Like a river, I'm flowing
And there's no way of knowing
If I'm coming or going
I need something to chain me down
[Chorus]
Don't matter
My eyes have seen for better
Out of blue comes green
[Verse 2]
Mother, I have gone wrong
Work my fingers to the bone
All I've been doing
Father, proud that I am
To be born into such hands
Your love so renewing
And I know I can lose it
Part of life, you can't choose it
As I touched the horizon
It just felt like I'd die soon
[Chorus]
Don't matter
My eyes have seen
For better
Out of blue comes green
[Pre-Chorus]
And like a river I'm flowing
I need something to chain me down
[Chorus]
Don't matter
And now I've seen
For better
Out of, out of blue comes green
Don't matter
Out of blue comes green
[Instrumental]
