Bird Brain - The Dares

Clip my wings or let me leap from a wire

From the bottom but I was born to be higher.

Singe my beak cause I don’t have permission

Tempered speech, what an awful tradition now

Clip my wings and let me bleed from desire

A burning hunger or a funeral pyre

Making a habit to change how I feel most

New sensation sussed out on the west coast

Now I’m ready

Here’s to shaking things up

To tearing them down

This town is yours and mine now

Here’s to shaking things up

To tearing them down

This town is yours and mine now

No you don’t have to listen

To the wonderful sound

Took my leave on the eve of a let down

Buildings and streets like the bars of a cage now

High minded beasts turned to creatures of habit

Dashing their dreams when they just couldn’t grab it

Here’s to shaking things up

To tearing them down

This town is yours and mine now

Here’s to shaking things up

To tearing them down

This town is yours and mine now

No you don’t have to listen

To the wonderful sound

No heed or caution but my will is grounded now

So take the leap, the earth is weak

So perfectly unbounded

Unbounded!

I found it!

Now i’m ready
