Canary in a coal mine An early warning sign I ignore I bury my head in the sand It’s reflexive Messenger pigeon A story told in time I compose Myself in chords and rhymes It’s reflexive Sentinel chicken A necessary sacrifice I endure Cause nobody else has lived my life before You dare clip my wings Lucky me I can do more than fly I'll crawl, I'll crawl, I'll crawl Till my knees bleed I'll crawl to the finish line You dare clip my wings Lucky me I can do more than fly I'll crawl, I'll crawl, I'll crawl To the finish line
