Song lyrics
Fight the fight alone
When the world is full of victims
Dims a fading light
in our souls
Leave the peace alone
Now we all are slowly changing
Dims a fading light
in our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
The things we hold are always first to go
And who's to say we won't end up alone

On broken wings I'm falling
and it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
by the fires of the sun
On skinned knees I'm bleeding
and it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
and I'll search for so long

Cry ourselves to sleep
We will sleep alone forever
Will you lay me down
in the same place with all I love
Mend the broken homes
Care for them
they are our brothers
Save the fading light in our souls

In my opinion seeing is to know
What you give will always carry you
And who's to say we won't survive it too

On broken wings I'm falling
and it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
by the fires of the sun
On skinned knees I'm bleeding
and it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
and I'll search for so long

Set a free all
Relying on their will
to make me all that I am
and all that I'll be
Set a free all
Will fall between the cracks
with memories of all that I am
and all that I'll be

On broken wings I'm falling
and it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
by the fires of the sun
On skinned knees I'm bleeding
and it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
and I'll search for so long

"Broken Wings" is a great song!!! Be sure to listen to "Watch Your Words", That's a great one as well.

Great song... i think they're better than Creed, because now Mark can really exploit his abilities with the guitar

This is better than their 1st single Open Your Eyes. I never really cared for Creed that much but I really like their band with this new singer.

I HAd to post here cuz this song is amazing , one of the best chorus I've ever heard , cuz its big and meaningfull not just a "mmmmbop bu da bup" if u know what i mean... I really like what this new guy did at the ending of the sentences within the chorus too , i dont know if its natural or synthesizer so dont blame me on that...

Overall great song , deep lyrics and good new band (new, cuz the singer sounds a lot alike but still different)

great song, it reminds me of that story with the two guys on the island, they make wax wings and when one go near to the sun it melts and the one guy dies...

Seriously, the song is ok. But the singer is crap.
But really, saying that Alter Bridge is better than Creed..

Creed is one of the best bands in history.
The members from Creed (except scott stapp) can do whatever they want for how long and no matter what they do, they will never create anything as good as Creed did. Since of the fact, Scott Stapp made 99,9% of Creed anyway.

Alter Bridge is a ok band, you can listen to the songs for a few times, then the songs just get... crappy since the singer in AB ain't even good... his voice is just not good :S
