freedom

go on, birdie

a/n: i'm so sorry if this sucks in advance but this is the first song i'm posting on here and i had anticipated putting a lot of songs here but i realized that i always start a song but never finish it. this one i've finished, but haven't made any music for yet. singing is my dream and i just hope my songs are somewhat ok :-)

go on, birdie

oh, birdie, why do you pray?

when you can just fly away?

the end of your hair will soon begin to fray

before your wishes are granted and you go away

you've got all the ingredients

yet you wait for someone else to put them together

when you can do it so much better

go on, birdie, fly away

you can wish all you want but nothing'll happen till you pay

go on, birdie, fly away

before your wings are weak and colored grey

the pieces on a dandelion can not all be blown

the last one must be plucked

but you refuse to pluck it,

waiting for the wind to hit

oh, birdie, just climb the wall

you can get back up if you fall

dirt may be on your fingers but you'll be standing tall

go, birdie, fly away

you can wish all you want but nothing'll happen till you pay

go on, birdie, fly away

before your wings are weak and colored grey

someday when they've asked what you've done

and your breathe runs short as you realize the answer's none

you'll look at your hands

they're clean and bland

no story to tell

no time where you made it through hell

you have only one regret

you never flew

you waited for a help you never knew

you could've flown away

you could've forgotten tomorrow

and focused on today

and now you've got nothing to say

everything you wanted to say would be said too late

go on, birdie, cry away

you can wish all you want but nothing'll happen for you're too far in the day

go on, birdie, cry away

because your wings are weak and colored grey

and with nothing done on this earth you stay
