Birds Without Wings |
| Wishing that something would happen |
| A change in this place |
| 'Cos I’m tearing off the fancy wrapping |
| Find an empty package |
| Take for a while, your trumpet from your lip |
| Loosen your hold, loosen your grip |
| On your old ways that have fallen out of step |
| In a changing time |
| Hoist a new flag |
| Hoist a new flag |
| Angry sun burn down |
| Judging us all |
| Guilty of neglect and disrespect |
| And thinking small |
| And death by boredom |
| And death by greed |
| If we can’t stop taking |
| More than we need |
| Well across the fractured landscape |
| I find the same things |
| Tired ideas |
| Birds without wings |
| Birds without wings |
| Birds without wings |
| And these are just thoughts |
| On lack-luster times |
| I’ve no interest |
| In excuses you can find |
| Like you’ve had a hard day |
| Now you’ve too tired to care |
| Now you’re too tired to care |
| You’ve had a hard day |
| Well across the fractured landscape |
| I see the same things |
| Tired ideas, broken values |
| Many with the notion that to share is to lose |
| A hollow people bound by a lack |
| Of imagination and too much looking back |
| Without the courage to give a new thing a chance |
| Grounded by this ignorance |
| (And the cat comes) |
| We’re just |
| Birds without wings |
| Birds without wings |
| Birds without wings |
