Flightless Bird
November 20, 2009
Flightless bird
Caged sparrow
How is it you sing ?
Don't you need a friend?
Need someone beside you?
Someone to talk to?
Someone to share your song?
Flightless bird
Caged sparrow
How does it feel to be trapped?
Longing to spread your wings?
How does it feel to be in this golden prison?
Aren't you ever tired of being alone?
Flightless bird
Caged sparrow
Why can't I set you free?
You can fly away
Yes, you can fly away
Fly away and be free
Flightless bird
Caged sparrow
How is it you sing?
No friend around
No one beside you
No one to share your song
Locked away behind gold bars
Tell me
Oh, tell me how do you sing?
