[Intro] (ohh) Shadowed runway, humming in the distance (low choir humming) [Verse 1] Midnight on the runway, all these empty seats in silence Heavy skies are hanging low and grey Radar like a tired eye in quiet, watching sorrow Birds of joy have folded wings and strayed Midnight on the runway, all these empty seats in silence [Verse 2] Heavy skies are hanging low and grey Radar like a tired eye in quiet, watching sorrow Birds of joy have folded wings and strayed In this endless waiting room of grief and broken journeys Wandering planes keep circling far away [Chorus] Here and there the wild weeds of our fears keep growing Wind is pulling at the bones of faith Like a faded picture, young heart trying hard for comfort Face in trembling hands, hair all out of place [Bridge] (oh Lord) Pilgrims know this picture, they have walked this road before us Hearts have named the storm inside the rain Pilgrims hold this picture, they have walked this road before us Oh the weight of love, oh God, the weight of pain [Outro] Darkness feels like thunder waiting just above this runway Holding still our fragile Prayers (choir humming, soft amen)
