Lyrics This Bird Has Flown - The Ghost Club

This Bird Has Flown

Someday, I’ll be so far away from all of you
All this unspoken ridicule
You’ll never rule my life like the way that you used to
I find I am much better off out on my own
Maybe a house, but not a home
You’ll wake to find I’ve changed my mind
I’m sorry, but this bird has flown
This bird has flown
So, let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they’re falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies
Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me
It’s time for me to spread my wings
I feel fine and feeling fine is good enough
I’m alone and though it may be rough
I can’t lie, I’m free to fly, I don’t belong to anyone
Had a friend and I put you on a pedestal
I may be dumb, but I’m no fool
So keep your throne, it’s all you own
And all that you’ll ever know
This bird has flown
So let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they’re falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies
Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me
It’s time for me to spread my wings
You will never be able to exam me and clip these wings
And I know that all that I can see is the open sky out in front of me
You will never be able to exam me and clip these wings
And I know that all that I can see is the open sky out in front of me
So let these fools run free
To be the ones they want to be
These chains, they’re falling off all over me
My friends, I hope you get to see
That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies
Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me
It’s time for me to spread my wings
