[Verse 1]
Hey, is that you living in silence?
Straight shot, my blood from the stone
They brought you primitive science
I torched the feet of the throne
And I say

[Chorus]
Wings on fire
Is the reason why
These insects around me know
They strove on this earth together
[Post-Chorus]
Gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are, anyway
I’m gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are at any rate

[Verse 2]
I’ll accept it, this role prophetic
Smoke tears a soundless lake
The clouds they missed it, this plunge ballistic
It comes with a mountain in flamеs
And I say

[Chorus]
Wings on fire
Is the reason why
Thеse insects around me know
They strove on this earth together

[Post-Chorus]
Gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are, anyway
I’m gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are at any rate

[Bridge]
I see you in the vestibule with time to kill
I see you in the vestibule, inclined to thrill

[Verse 3]
Don’t give them anything about yourself
Don’t show a purpose, don’t tell no one else
Because we’ve all got something to resolve today
To emote our servant themes
And I say

[Chorus]
Wings on fire
Is the reason why
These insects around me know
They strove on this earth together

[Post-Chorus]
Gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are, anyway
I’m gonna find out who you are
Find out who you are at any rate

[Bridge]
I see you in the vestibule with time to kill
I see you in the vestibule, inclined to thrill
The shoulder told the arm today:
“Keep your psalms in your right hand”

[Outro]
Wings on fire
Go with sadness
Maybe someone I would like to know
Wings on fire
Perfect day, I don’t mind
I would like to know
Wings on fire
Go with sadness
Maybe someone I would like to know
Wings on fire
