Freed from the fetters of a bird with no feathers,
And I know that I belong, but I can't quite find my spot,
Is this my swan song? I know that this is real,
But I just can't a feel for the breaking and taking
Of the precious jewels I seared.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I burned
When I held you, I was cold, like a mountain
At the top, as the wind blows nonstop,
Don't look back it's alright,
The wind won't stop soon.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I jumped
When I saw the jagged edge of the cliff
Around noontime, I wait for hightide,
That's why I'm still alive, that's why I'm still alive,
Some say I'll never die.
Freed from these chains once bound around my wrists,
Now I can move without getting kicked in the stomach,
In the head anywhere that I dread, I just hate being here,
Now a life I've misled, now I must recompense those I thought
I had wrenched but I guess maybe so I'm a loner after all.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I burned
When I held you, I was cold, like a mountain
At the top, as the wind blows nonstop,
Don't look back it's alright,
The wind won't stop soon.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I jumped
When I saw the jagged edge of the cliff
Around noontime, I wait for hightide,
That's why I'm still alive, that's why I'm still alive,
Some say I'll never die.
Don't believe what I say I'm another fantasy,
I'm the cryptic message left on your phone,
It's a text, I was high, it reads "Don't compromise"
I don't know what I meant, don't ask what I have to say,
I'm a two-footed bird, I can run, I can hide,
But I still cannot fly, don't ask why, don't ask why, oh please don't ask why...
Don't believe me if I tell you that I burned
When I held you, I was cold, like a mountain
At the top, as the wind blows nonstop,
Don't look back it's alright,
The wind won't stop soon.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I jumped
When I saw the jagged edge of the cliff
Around noontime, I wait for hightide,
That's why I'm still alive, that's why I'm still alive,
Some say I'll never die.
Some say I'll never die,
But I know, swear to God,
That I know I'll never fly,
I'm a bird, now I'm free,
But I can't fly away,
Where to go?
Where to stay?
There's nothing here
For me.
So I'll run like the wind,
Like a cheetah towards it's dinner,
I'm a winner, venison for the predator,
I think I'm alright, I can't fly,
But I run, but I'll run till I know
That the world, that the world,
That the world doesn't blow (up).
And I know that I belong, but I can't quite find my spot,
Is this my swan song? I know that this is real,
But I just can't a feel for the breaking and taking
Of the precious jewels I seared.
Don't believe me if I tell you that I burned
When I held you, I was cold, like a mountain
