I look up to the little bird
  That glides across the sky
  He sings the clearest melody
  It makes me want to cry
  It makes me want to sit right down
  and cry cry cry
  I walk along the city streets
  So dark with rage and fear
  And I...
  I wish that I could be that bird
  And fly away from here
  I wish I had the wings to fly away from here
    But my my I feel so low
  My my where do I go ?
  My my what do I know ?
  My my we reap what we sow
  They always said that you knew best
  But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now
  I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
  So I've just got to put these wings to test
    For I am just a troubled soul
  Who's weighted...
  Weighted to the ground
  Give me the strength to carry on
  Till I can lay this burden down
  Give me the strength to lay this burden down down down yeah
  Give me the strength to lay it down
    But my my I feel so low
  My my where do I go ?
  My my what do I know ?
  My my we reap what we sow
  They always said that you knew best
  But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now
  I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
  So I've just got to put these wings to test
