I'm a Bird

I can hear myself yelling

I’m holding on to this one tight

It may be stale, this place I’m dwelling

But I feel safe so I say it’s alright

But is it alright? Cause I’m tired of just alright

But I’m scared of what’s to come

Yeah I’m shaking life a leaf

Afraid to let go of my tree

No one cares about my dreams

The only one who needs to believe is me

I’m a bird in the dead of night

I’ll set me free, there’s not much left for me

What’s a bird without his wings?

Cut my fear with faith like a knife

Let me do my thing

(guitar solo)

So it seems there’s a part of me that’s dying

My dream told me so last night

I tossed and turned like a dryer

Cause who can sleep when its fight or flight?

Or is there a part of me that’s lying about who I want to be?

Maybe that’s just my mosquito mind

Taking a little life from me

I’m a bird in the dead of night

I’ll set me free, there’s not much left for me

What’s a bird without his wings?

Cut my fear with faith like a knife

Let me do my thing

But if I wake up tomorrow as a human being

I guess I’ll sing
