I Should Be a Bird
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.
I've been tryin' to find the right time
To tell you everythin' on my mind
But I'm still tryin' to find the right time
And I know you're goin' through hard things, so
I'm givin' everything to fix things
But I'm tryna figure where to draw the line
Sometimes you talk, got me thinkin' that you hate me
Still love you, but some days I'm kinda suffocating
I don't wanna see, I don't wanna see you down, but
How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying
I feel like I'm living for the days when
Think that I'm finally seein' changes
And there ain't nothin' more amazing
Sometimes I wonder, are we flyin' 'round in circles?
I'm in the sky, but you're bringin' me back down low
But I don't wanna come down
I wanna lift you back up
How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying
Should I stay or should I go?
How long is it gonna be this way? I just really wanna know
Am I afraid to let you know?
'Cause I don't wanna be the one that hurts you while you're hurtin' the most
How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying, no
When I'm tired of the trying
Oh, tell me
How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
I should be a bird
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
I should be a bird
I should be a bird
