Birds Lyrics

I started out in 1994

Always wanting more, stuck in first gear

But without your rope coiled around my neck

What did I do next? t's not much better

So I'll just propose a solitary toast

To the people I love most, I can't wait to get home

Get in your car, and I'll just hop in mine

Don't you think it's time for us to say goodbye

See you later, you gave me strength to carry on

I think that I still have some work to do

I'm not a savior, so no more chances to respawn

I think that I still have some work to do

My lungs are strained

One too many secret cigarettes

My heart is drained

One too many breaks

I know you've given all you've got

I never gave a single reason to be missed

So go, just leave me here to rot

You've got a life to live out there, so who needs this

You know the songs I loved the best

I never thought you'd make me hate it when they played

So go, please leave me here to rest

I've got a life to live out there, so please just fade

We'll fly away just like birds on the wind

Oh if I could sing something better

Would you please come home?

Here is where I'll always be

I don't wanna try or care or beg or plead

All I know is here is where I'll have to be

I don't wanna cry or hurt or stand and bleed

If I was a bird would you please clip my wings

Don't deserve to fly or sing myself to sleep

I know I fucked up and we fought

You never acted like you wanted one last kiss

So go, just leave me here to rot

You've got a life to live out there, so who needs this

You know the friends I loved the best

I never thought you'd make me hate to see them smile

So go, please leave me here to rest

I've got a life to live out there, so please just fade out now
