If You're A Bird... I'm A Bird

I don't know what you're thinking tonight

But there's a sea of freedom below you

and your thought just might be to take flight

but there's one last thing that I owe you

I owe you this...

Now, be sure to say goodbye

and write my name in your pocket

so when you're found, they can tell me you're safe

though safety might mean that

you went home to meet your maker

at least you've found a little bit of peace

that's all you've ever wanted

was a way to escape

to run away from all your demons

and outwit the curse of hate

but you have lost once again

you think you're stuck with this plan

and that flight would be the only way

to prove that you're a man...

but its not...

I don't know what you're thinking tonight

But there's a sea of freedom below you

and your thought just might be to take flight

but there's one last thing that I owe you

I owe you this...

See, why he chose the bridge

I guess I'll never really know

but I think that he just wanted to fly

before he had to go

one time was all he needed

one last chance to be a bird

just to fall to his fate

to cease this never ending hurt

It's been growing with time

and he's been taken to the edge

now his arms are outstretched

and he will fly from this ledge

and I will watch him fly

with my very own eyes

God, He looks just like a bird

It's such a beautiful disguise...

I don't know what you're thinking tonight

But there's a sea of freedom below you

and your thought just might be to take flight

but there's one last thing that I owe you

I owe you this...

one last chance to live...

cause a bird is not such a great

creature to be

one wrong move of the wind

and you get swept into the sea

But I refuse to watch you fall

I refuse to watch you break

I'll continue holding on

for as long as it takes

I'm not ready for goodbye

I'm not ready to part ways

I'm not ready to let go

or watch you fall to this fate

So just kiss me on the lips

I'll breathe my life into you

If thats what it takes...

then thats what I must do

But I guess I'm too late

It's not my life to save

I've done all I can do

Now it's your step to take

But, I don't know what you're thinking tonight

there's a sea of freedom below you

and your thought just might be to take flight

but there's one last thing that I owe you

Cause I know what you're thinking tonight

there's a sea of freedom below you

and the act has become taking flight

but theres one last thing that I owe you...

I owe you this...

one last chance to live...

with "goodbye" on my lips.
