You chose to live as an eagle but you're only chasing flies

Impossible, is just never been done before

I wasn't looking for a present I just wanted to unfold one

I can't thank you enough, but all this'll pass

You're an eagle chasing flies, an eagle chasing

This is the right time to hold on

Or to turn your feathers in

This is the right time to hold on

And change my beggar's skin

Now who the beggar be, is it you or is it me?

We'd rather die on our feet than live on our knees

You roll the dice!

You roll the dice!

But then again

We'd rather live on our knees than to die on the streets

You're an eagle chasing flies, an eagle chasing

Is this the right time to hold on

Or to turn my feathers in?

Is this the right time to hold on?

And change my beggar's skin

You're an eagle chasing flies

An eagle chasing flies

An eagle chasing flies

An eagle chasing

Is this the right time to hold on

Or to turn my feathers in?

Is this the right time to hold on

And change my beggar's skin

This is the right time

To turn my feathers in
