Forgotten How to Fly
[Verse 1]
All my life
All my life
Can you hear me, when I cry at night?
All my life
All my life
If you can see me please show me the light
[Chorus 1]
Cause I've forgotten how to fly
I've forgotten how to fly, I forgotten how to fly
I've forgotten how to fly standing on the edge of the sky looking for the strength to try
Something is broken and my wings won't open. I don't know why
Forgotten how to fly
Fly, fly, fly
Forgotten how to fly
Fly, fly, fly
[Verse 2]
When did I put my happiness in the hands of others my piece of mind separate from the sky
When did I forgot we could all be lovers he, she, ze, we, and I and how could a bird so free return to her cage without protest?
I know that little birdie she is me and maybe I just needed some rest, and I don't know, I don't know why the cage bird still sings and I don't know, I don't know how and she remembers everything oh
Quiet, quiet, please be quiet I can't hear my thoughts
Quiet, quiet, please be quiet there goes another one lost and
[Chorus 2]
Cause I forgotten how to fly
I forgotten how to fly, i forgotten how to fly
I forgotten how to fly standing on the edge of the sky looking for the strength to try
Something is broken and my wings won't open. I don't know why
Forgotten how to fly
Fly, fly, fly
Forgotten how to fly
Fly, fly, fly
[Outro]
Can you hear me in a sea of voices
Can I hear me in my own head
I hear the ghosts, the shadows of my choices drowning in my words unsaid
I promise, I promise from this day forward I will be a better me
I feel it, I feel it taking over remembering how to be free
