Lyrics
Birds
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Been standing in the corner
Studying the lights
The dreaming of escaping
Will keep you up at night
But someone had put the flares up
And got me in rays
So I guess I better stay
Uh uh, no come on! You say
It's a fool's gold thunder
It's just a warring rain
Don't let the fears just start
What if I won't see you again?
Around here you never want
To sleep all night
So start falling in love
Start the riot and
Come on rage with me
We don't need words
And we'll be birds
Got to make our own key
Only got this moment
You and me
Guilty of nothing
But geography
Come on and raise it
Come on raise this noise
For the million people
Who got no one voice
Come on, it's not over!
If you mean it say loud
Come on all for love
Out from the underground
Away with me
We don't need words
Close your eyes and see
And we'll be birds
Flying free
Holding on in the mystery
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Fearless together oh oh oh oh oh oh
When you fly won't you
Won't you take me too?
In this world so cruel
I think you're so cool
