Tekst piosenki 'Birds' wykonawcy East Love

I've been skimming the paper, I've been scrolling around
I've been trying to get up, but something's holding me down
I've been shutting my eyes but getting no rest, no
I've been trying to leave but can't get out of this nest

I left the stove on yesterday, and I
Put on a coat in the middle of May, and I
Wonder how many birds would it take

To carry me away
Away, away, away

I've been taking days off so I can do work
I've been trying to smile but all I get is a smirk
And I'm starting to see the day make way for the night
I'm not scared of the ocean but I'm stuck in the tide

Headed out to Santa Fe, but I
Broke down on Avenue A, and I
Wonder how many birds would it take

To carry me away
Away, away, away

I used to feel wild
I used to be okay
Now I'm a man inside another metal cage
But I can hear 'em call
They're never far away
Can you hear them?
I used to sleep at night
But now I lie awake
Dreaming up the perfect plan for my escape
But I can hear 'em call
To carry me away

To carry me away
Away, away, away
To carry me away
Away, away, away

Headed out to Santa Fe, but I
Broke down on Avenue A, and I
Wonder how many birds would it take to carry me away

To carry me away
Away, away, away
To carry me away
Away, away, away
