Birds Without Wings - David Gray (大卫·格雷)[00:00:00]
Wishing that something would happen[00:00:11]
A change in this place[00:00:16]
'Cause I'm tearing off the fancy wrapping[00:00:21]
Find an empty package[00:00:26]
Take for a while[00:00:31]
Your trumpet from your lip[00:00:33]
Loosen your hold[00:00:37]
Loosen your grip[00:00:39]
On your old ways[00:00:41]
That have fallen out of step[00:00:44]
In a changing time[00:00:46]
Hoist a new flag hoist a new flag[00:00:53]
Angry sun burn down[00:01:13]
Judging us all[00:01:18]
Guilty of neglect and disrespect[00:01:23]
And thinking small[00:01:27]
And death by boredom[00:01:33]
And death by greed[00:01:38]
If we can't stop taking[00:01:43]
More than we need[00:01:48]
But across the fractured landscape[00:01:53]
I see the same things tired ideas[00:01:58]
Birds without wings[00:02:08]
Birds without wings[00:02:15]
Birds without wings[00:02:25]
And these are just thoughts[00:02:33]
Of lack luster times[00:02:37]
I've no interest[00:02:43]
In excuses you can find[00:02:47]
Like you've had a hard day[00:02:53]
Now you're too tired to care[00:02:57]
Now you're too tired to care[00:03:02]
You've had a hard day[00:03:08]
Well across the fractured landscape[00:03:12]
I see the same things[00:03:18]
Tired ideas broken values[00:03:23]
Many with the notion that to share is to lose[00:03:28]
A hollow people bound by a lack[00:03:32]
Of imagination and too much looking back[00:03:37]
Without the courage to give a new thing a chance[00:03:42]
Grounded by this ignorance[00:03:47]
(And the cat comes)[00:03:52]
We're just[00:03:56]
Birds without wings[00:03:58]
Birds without wings[00:04:08]
Birds without wings[00:04:18]
Birds[00:04:25]
