Lyrics

I wanna bury my head in the sand
Even though I'm pretty sure the whole world can
Still see my body standing above the ground
But I don't care, sometimes I just wanna hide
Maybe if I could find a way to work these wings of mine
Or maybe I could run to where the earth meets the sky
I'll stick out my thumb and I'll hitch a ride
On the phoenix that's heading straight to the sun
And wherever she drops me off, I'll run
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
We can race the earth around the sun, friend, you and me
Finally defy these laws of gravity
I used to be an ostrich
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
We can race the earth around the sun, friend, finally
Some wings that work for me
I'm not the ostrich I used to be
Have you ever been afraid, ever looked away
From what the world was sending your way?
Have you ever tried to close your eyes to your heart?
You ever looked for another way out
For a detour around the truth
Just living lies and wearing a disguise
Well, I'm thinking that you could come too
To run to the ocean's edge
To a pretty pastel escape
I'll be the one floating on the wings of Hermes
And maybe you could borrow Superman's cape
Oh, do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
We can race the earth around the sun, friend, you and me
Finally defy these laws of gravity
I used to be an ostrich
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
We can race the earth around the sun, friend, finally
Some wings that work for me
I'm not the ostrich I used to be
Oh, I'm not the ostrich
Come on now, do you wanna run?
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run?
Do you wanna run? Do you wanna run with me?
I used to be an, I used to be an ostrich
I, I used to be an ostrich
I, I used to be
I used to be an ostrich
I, oh, but I'm not the ostrich I used to be
Oh, I'm not the ostrich I used to be
