no strings attached

magpie flies

after then, there were weeks and months of nothing

one half of my heart knew that you'd come but the other knew you'd never return

after a year of sitting there, waiting, i decided not to fall but to rise

i left that place with the memories of a lifetime, and with a neon green smile

i took a match and threw it onto a gasoline covered floor

i jumped onto clouds to cross countires, taking what i wanted but did not need

i still smell the gasoline on my hands, and i still sit in silence waiting for you at night

i know you will not return, but why are you still with me

magpie is go for flight, magpie is go for flight

i'm afraid of what's underneath, but i can fly again

i'm afraid of the spaces between, but i can fly again

i'm afraid of what's around the corner, but i can fly again

i'm afraid of myself time to time, but i can fly again

i'll buy all the spray paint you have, mister

i'll take it to the streets and i'll set to what i came here for

and paint the walls with a single sentence

i'll speak to the voiceless, the gangbangers

i'll speak to the ruthless, the abandoned,

and anyone with a message or a warning

magpie is go for flight, magpie is go for flight
