listen to the tales and romanticize,
how we follow the path of the hero
boast about the day when the rivers overun
how we rised to the height of our halo
listen to the tales as we all rationalize
our way into the arms of a savior,
fading all the trials and the tribulations,
none of us have actually been there,
not like you,
ignorant fibbers in the congregation,
gather around spewing sympathy,
spare me,
none of them can even hold a candle up to you
blinded by choices hippocrites wont seek,
but nothing but the ? of judas,
who could deny you were the one who would have made it,
youll have a piece of the divine,
this little light of mine, it gives your past unto me,
ill let it shine,
to guide you safely on your way,
your way home
ohh, what are they going to do when the lights go down
without you guide them home to zion
what are they going to do when the river is overrun
other than tremble incessantly,
high as a wave but ill rise on up off/on the ground
You are the light and the wave, they've only read about
i only pray, god only knows when to lift you out?
10000 days in the fire is long enough, your going home.
your the only one who can hold your head up high,
shake your fist at the gates saying,
"i have come home now,
fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father
tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. its time now, my time now,
give me my, give me my, wings"
give me my x5
give me my wings
heyyyyyyyyyhooooooooooooooooooooo
You are the light and the wave, they've only read about
set/said as i am in my wings and my arrogance,
burnin all through tossed upon the believers
you were my witness,
my eyes, my evidence,
judith marie, unconditional one
daylight dims, leaving cold flouresence, difficult to see you in this light,
please forgive this, bold suggestion, should you see your maker's face tonight,
look em in the eye, look em in the eye, and tell them, i never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one, hallelujah, its time for you to bring me home.
i know theres kinks. edit if you find them, please?

I'm pretty sure it goes "should you see your MAKER'S face tonight," at least it makes more sense in context of the song.

"while your safely on your way" seems to be: "To guide you safely on your way"
And also:
"you are light, a wave, that they will only read about" is: "You are the light and the wave, they've only read about."

Updated version:
Listen to the tales and romanticize,
How we follow the path of the hero.
Boast about the day when the rivers overrun.
How we rised to the height of our halo.
Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
Our way into the arms of the savior,
Fading all the trials and the tribulations,
None of us have actually been there,
Not like you.
Ignorant fibbers in the congregation,
Gather around spewing sympathy,
Spare me.
None of them can even hold a candle up to you.
Blinded by choices, hippocrites won't seek.
But, nothing but the [?] of judas,
Who could deny you were the one who would have made it,
You'll have a piece of the divine.
This little light of mine it gives your past unto me,
I'll let it shine,
To guide you safely on your way,
Your way home...
Ohh, what are they going to do when the lights go down
Without you to guide them all to Zion?
What are they going to do when the rivers overrun
Other than tremble incessantly?
High as a wave, but I'll rise on up off the ground.
You are the light and the way, they'll only read about.
I only pray, God knows when to lift you out.
Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough, you're going home.
You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fists at the gates saying:
"I have come home now!
Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.
It's time now! My time now!
Give me my, give me my wings."
Give me my x5
Give me my wings.
You are the light and way, that they will only read about.
Set as I am in my wings and my arrogance,
Burning all through tossed upon the believers
You were my witness,
My eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one.
Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion:
Should you see your Maker's face tonight,
Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:
I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one.
Hallelujah, its time for you to bring me home.
EDIT: the way indee and other minor changes done.

I know, it has to be the most personal song MJK has ever wrote. I imagine he cried when he heard it. I did. It's a great song for anybody who has a loved one in pain.
I'm Speechless also. Those are brilliant lyrics. When a loved one dies of mine (Hopefully not for a long time) this will be what i dedicate to them.

You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fists at the gates saying:
"I have come home now!
Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.
It's time now! My time now!
Give me my, give me my wings."
This has got to be one of the most powerful verses I've heard. This is a fantastic song.

I just listened to it again. Easily the most moving, touching, beautiful piece of music I've ever listened to. Amazing. Deep and beautiful and sorrowful and solemn. I was in near tears and had chills running up and down my body.

Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion:
Should you see your Maker's face tonight,
Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:
I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one.
Hallelujah, its time for you to bring me home.
That is the most powerful piece of lyric i have ever read....
