Bird in an Airport
You won't believe
what you're meant to be
when you lie to yourself
Suitcases full of dreams
Don't waste them on routine
Take the time off the shelf
As you gather up your crumbs
your pride is feeling numb
You know you lose and learn
Don't blame another soul
for the happiness they stole
because you're feeling more
and more
like a bird in an airport
who never sang his song
Sweet melody of the brave
Like a bird in an airport
Who knows how long
he can go
until he finds his way?
Take another flight
with books to read or write
on your own time
Open up those wings
Trade the winds of spring
for your own kite
Lay over where you like
just south of winter's sight
You know you're living more
Grab another coat
and those poems
that you wrote
too important to ignore
Like a bird in an airport
who never sang his song
Sweet melody of the brave
Like a bird in an airport
Who knows how long
he can go
until he finds his way?
what you're meant to be
when you lie to yourself
Suitcases full of dreams
Don't waste them on routine
Take the time off the shelf
As you gather up your crumbs
your pride is feeling numb
You know you lose and learn
Don't blame another soul
for the happiness they stole
because you're feeling more
and more
like a bird in an airport
who never sang his song
Sweet melody of the brave
Like a bird in an airport
Who knows how long
he can go
until he finds his way?
Take another flight
with books to read or write
on your own time
Open up those wings
Trade the winds of spring
for your own kite
Lay over where you like
just south of winter's sight
You know you're living more
Grab another coat
and those poems
that you wrote
too important to ignore
Like a bird in an airport
who never sang his song
Sweet melody of the brave
Like a bird in an airport
Who knows how long
he can go
until he finds his way?
