Broken Wing - Alkaline Trio

It ain’t hard get lost

When you forget where you come from

Turn that dial to the right

Push that pedal down

Don’t say goodbye

Just for a drive

Along for the ride

It’d be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird

Looks like you’ve got a broken wing

Now anything so easy

It might not make you weak

But it sure won’t make me believe

It’s hell, you say, and it gets worse, you know

How many more days am I gonna wake up when there’s no place I wanna go?

If that sunshine’s really gonna kill us all why is everyday so cold?

Why is everything so fucking cold

And never melts away

It’d be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird

Looks like you’ve got a broken wing

Now anything so easy

It might not make you weak

But it sure won’t make me believe

That’s the top of your lungs

And the bottom of your heart

Is that the top of your lungs?

Is that the bottom of your heart?

Is that as deep as your heart goes?

I understand the things that keep you up

And I know that you still feel

And I know your heart is hemorrhaging

And needs some time to heal

Now the traffic lights there on your street

Flash yellow all the time

And the mirror in your bathroom it looks cracked in the wrong light

But walk out through your threshold

Fill your lungs and move on down the stairs

And let the things you love come back to you in time

We’ll all get there

It’d be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird

Looks like you’ve got a broken wing

Now anything so easy

It might not make you weak

But it sure won’t make me believe
