Bird On a Wire
Buried alive and about to burst
Why am I surprised when I'm so well rehearsed
I'm getting tired and I'm dying of thirst
I keep turning the dial but the tape is stuck in reverse
It's taking a while and it's only getting worse
And I don't know where I fit in
I know how the story goes
I just don't know how it ends
This is all I've ever known
And it's all I've ever done
I'm a bird on a wire, just like everyone
A bird on a wire and I'm tired of facing the sun
Leading the blind when the lines are blurred
On borrowed time, living word to word
Sometimes it fine but sometimes it really hurts
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay
And I don't know where I fit in
I know how the story goes
I just don't know how it ends
This is all I've ever known
And it's all I've ever done
I'm a bird on a wire, just like everyone
A bird on a wire and I'm tired of facing the sun
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay
It's all I've ever known (It's all I've ever known)
And all I've ever done
Why am I surprised when I'm so well rehearsed
I'm getting tired and I'm dying of thirst
I keep turning the dial but the tape is stuck in reverse
It's taking a while and it's only getting worse
And I don't know where I fit in
I know how the story goes
I just don't know how it ends
This is all I've ever known
And it's all I've ever done
I'm a bird on a wire, just like everyone
A bird on a wire and I'm tired of facing the sun
Leading the blind when the lines are blurred
On borrowed time, living word to word
Sometimes it fine but sometimes it really hurts
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay
And I don't know where I fit in
I know how the story goes
I just don't know how it ends
This is all I've ever known
And it's all I've ever done
I'm a bird on a wire, just like everyone
A bird on a wire and I'm tired of facing the sun
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
Far away, if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay if I want to run (A bird on a wire)
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay
It's all I've ever known (It's all I've ever known)
And all I've ever done
