The original two versions (yes, TWO) were actually never fully finished. Both JackleApp's idea and Tarby's demo were never fully polished after the song was written. Tarby made two full demos, and JackleApp only had a partial demo.

So, a while back, Tarby gave me permission to do a cover of this song, as JackleApp had basically handed it over to him, and several years later, this is what I imagine the song would have sounded like if it had been fully recorded, mixed and mastered.

Lyrics:

So I see that you're still stuck on the ground
Caught down there all warm and safe and sound
I know what it's like to be down there
Dreaming of the sky and open air

One day soon I just know you'll see
Raise your head and smile for me
Laugh about your history
Know just what you're meant to be

You sigh and always try to play it cool
But deep inside, you still feel like a fool
The world's so big and you, you feel so small
Wondering if you should try at all

Well, Tomorrow's not til today is gone
Live the moment, don't take long
Forget the troubles you think on
Smile for impending dawn

Is it time to break the mold?
Are you doing what you're told?
Go ahead, you can be bold.
Live for living, don't be cold!
When your final days have come
Smile at the mile's you've run
Come on, have a little fun
Spread your wings your time has come!

Sitting, hoping for the wings you've earned
Silent as the fire in you burned

Brush away the dust and ash
On your shoulders from the past
Smile at the things that last
Feel the beat, your dice are cast
Stroke of luck, or fate, rejoice
Now you finally have a choice
So prove them wrong in what they say
...Or wait another day
