David Gray - Birds Without Wings слова песни
Wishing that something would happen
a change in this place
cos I`m tearing off the fancy wrapping
find an empty package
Take for a while
your trumpet from your lip
loosen your hold, loosen your grip
on your old ways
that have fallen out of step
in a changing time
hoist a new flag
hoist a new flag
Angry sun burn down
judging us all
guilty of neglect and disrespect
and thinking small
And death by boredom
and death by greed
if we don`t stop taking
more than we need
But across the fractured landscape
I find the same things
tired ideas
birds without wings
Birds without wings
birds without wings
And these are just thoughts
on lack-lustre times
I`ve no interest
in excuses you can find
Like you`ve had a hard day
now you`re too tired to care
now you`re too tired to care
oh you`ve had a hard day
Well across the fractured landscape
I see the same things
tired ideas, broken values
many with the notion
that to share is to lose
a hollow people bound by a lack
of imagination and too much looking back
without the courage
to give a new thing a chance
grounded by this ignorance
(and the cat comes)
We`re just
birds without wings
birds without wings
