When I hit the ground in all my glory
I will know where I have come from
In the shadow of that doubt that meets the morning
I have come and I have faced it
In the time it took to really understand him
I bore witness to who he grew to be
I will never know
Why a good man will go
Or a bird will fall
From the sky that she was made for
And a heart will beat
Out of fear of its defeat
And the love you left behind
Will no longer stand today
When I hit the runway in my armor
I will know what I am made of
And in the arms of my daughter comes an answer
I have seen what she will know
I will never know why
A good man will die
Or a bird will fall
From the sky that she was made for
And a heart will beat
Out of fear of its defeat
And the love you left behind
Will no longer stand today
When I hit the ground in all my glory
I will know where I have come from
In the shadow of the doubt that meets the morning
I have come, I have known
