"Bird Will Fly" Lyrics

(Paula Moore)

You tried to build a gilded cage and capture me and silence my song.
You didn't read the page, you got the story all wrong.
And you wanted me on a pedestal but I'm made of fire, not of stone.
Now, see me walking tall, I don't care to share your throne!

Have you heard the bird that sings, things aren't always what they seem
Now I am one to live the dream.
Bird has wings, bird will fly, bird will fly.

You try to fill your empty heart with all of what you cannot feel.
Anything to play the part, you'd beg, borrow or steal.

Have you heard the bird that sings? Things aren't always what they seem
Now I am one to live the dream.
Bird has wings, bird will fly, bird will fly.

See those bridges as they burn, big wheel of fortune in the sky!
So we live and learn, now it's your turn to cry, well...

Have you heard the bird that sings? Things aren't always what they seem
Now I am one to live the dream.
Bird has wings, bird will fly, bird will fly, flying into a brand new sky.
Now it's time to say goodbye, bird has wings, bird will fly.
Bird, bird, bird will fly, bird, bird, bird will fly.
Bird, bird, bird will fly, bird, bird, bird will fly.
Bird, bird, bird will fly, flying into a brand new sky.
