Bird is Bored of Flying |
Do you wonder why |
The bird is bored of flying |
It never asked to be alive |
To be a bird |
And never cared for heights |
And it’s seen the earth |
For what it is, the big ball of inconsequence |
Still, it sings |
There’s such a place as too far |
There’s such a thing as too much |
And we all want fire until it burns |
We all want more until it starts to hurt |
Do you wonder why |
The bird is bored of flying |
Still, it sings |
Shoot it down and pull the wings out |
I am waiting |
Shoot it down with copper bullets |
I am waiting |
'Cause we all want fire until it burns |
'Cause we all want more until it starts to hurt |
Here comes the ground again |
My concrete safety net |
As I leave the sky for the earth, I shed |
Shed my feathers and my small net worth |
Here comes the ground again |
I want less |
I want less |
I want less |
Shoot it down, pull the wings out |
I am waiting |
Shoot it down with copper bullets |
I am waiting |
'Cause we all want fire until it burns |
'Cause we all want more until it starts to hurt |
And I’ve come as far as I can go |
Close enough to know |
Bird is bored, bird is bored |
Bird is bored, bored of flying |
I’ve seen all that I care to see |
Become what I don’t want to be |
Bird is bored, bird is bored |
Bored of flying |
Bored of flying |
Bird is bored, bird is bored |
Bored of flying |
