Birds

I'm standing at the edge
I cannot turn around
The monsters left my head
They're calling from the ground
And I don't fear the other side
The way I fear the lonely night

I want to fall asleep
I'm tired of today
But everyone expects me to smile and stay awake
With everything against me
Gravity will help me

How am I to fly with broken wings
Can't you see that I will surely fall
How am I to care about anything
Nothing really matters after all

I'm standing at the edge
I cannot turn around
But maybe I can find some solice in the sounds
I wrote a song today
These notes will not decay

I want to fall asleep
I think when I'm awake
But if you sang a lullaby I think that I could stay
And wake up when the birds do
I hope I never hurt you but

How am I to fly with broken wings
Can't you see that I will surely fall
How am I to care about anything
Nothing really matters after all
