wingless bird

I was drowning in the middle of an island in the north sea Every time I feel like breathing, my head is barely floating I don't even know why I keep on trying Like a wingless bird on flight, barely surviving (barely surviving)

I've dragged myself through too many things Heavy footsteps echo where the silence clings One, two, three — knock on the door My knocking goes back at me, like I've been here before

Isn't that how it's supposed to be Falling but still reaching, lost in gravity Still floating, my feet anchored, though my heart feels undone Waiting for a sky where the wingless bird can run

Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run

I've been floating in an endless sea, made friends with a giant orca Shadows of me becoming all I see, or the depths of my story Every time I reach, my hands slip through But I still keep swimming, chasing something true (something true)

I've dragged myself through too many things Heavy footsteps echo where the silence clings One, two, three — knock on the door My knocking goes back at me, like I've been here before

Isn't that how it's supposed to be Falling but still reaching, lost in gravity Still floating, my feet anchored, though my heart feels undone Waiting for a sky where the wingless bird can run

Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run

Isn't that how it's supposed to be Falling but still reaching, lost in gravity Still floating, my feet anchored, though my heart feels undone Waiting for a sky where the wingless bird can run

Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run Where the wingless bird can run

Late-night whispers in my mind Trying to escape but I'm stuck in time Wingless bird, but still I try Even if I never fly

Isn't that how it's supposed to be Falling but still reaching, lost in gravity Still floating, my feet anchored, though my heart feels undone Waiting for a sky where the wingless bird can run

I was drowning, but now I see Every breath I take is setting me free Even a wingless bird on flight Can still find its place in the night

Wingless bird on flight Wingless bird on flight Wingless bird on flight

(Wingless bird on flight) (Wingless bird on flight) (Wingless bird on flight)
