“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us” – Ralph Waldo Emerson


(Verse 1)
Autumn always brings the memories
When summer bliss is left behind
The reality of winter upon me
Oh spring where are you in my mind

I thought we'd fly together wing to wing
In a crazy Krestral dance
Then I read the stars the night
And realized that we never even had no chance

(Chorus)
And the world tumbles down and u think u have it all, have it all, have it all
No one ever warns u that when u fly
Ur more likely to fall
More likely fall
Look out baby bird,
Look below your tree
Yeah thats me, yeah that's me
Broken at the bottom
Tried to fly, tried to fly
But instead with broken wings I'm just too hurt just to die
Just to die

(Verse 2)
I remember your deep brown eyes
Always so knowing, watching up at the skies
I wanted those eyes to watch at me
But Venus said no, and messed up with our chemistry

When the stars come out, the birds sit in aw
Wondering how to reach the truth of it all
But Galileo's telescope was never to long
And that's how I'm heartbroken writing this song

(Chorus)
And the world tumbles down and u think u have it all, have it all, have it all
No one ever warns u that when u fly
Ur more likely to fall
More likely fall
Look out baby bird,
Look below your tree
Yeah thats me, yeah that's me
Broken at the bottom
Tried to fly, tried to fly
But instead with broken wings I'm just too hurt just to die
Just to die

(Bridge)
Baby be reasonable
Shoot that bird
Never even mention another word
Cause I'm suffering
Your shot went through me
Killing my heart
And I can't bear it
For you to watch it fall apart
Just shoot the bird
You predator
My life is almost done
And I guess that when you'll look back
The shooting was so much fun

(Chorus)
And the world tumbles down and u think u have it all, have it all, have it all
No one ever warns u that when u fly
Ur more likely to fall
More likely fall
Look out baby bird,
Look below your tree
Yeah thats me, yeah that's me
Broken at the bottom
Tried to fly, tried to fly
But instead with broken wings I'm just too hurt just to die
Just to die
