"Bird Of Paradise" lyrics

"Bird Of Paradise"

I've been here before, just me and the wall
And this goddamn heat and everything's just out of my reach
I know I should call, but let me be clear
That anyone who's been down here would disappear

And it's always the same
I feel it coming

And it hits like I'm being buried alive
It's the opposite of a beautiful bird of paradise
And it hurts sometimes, there's too many lights
And I'm blinded by you, a beautiful bird of paradise
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

I want to be bold, I want to be free
But the line between my dreams and my reality is messy
I have to believe the joke's not on me
I won't give up, I'll win this war eventually

And it's always the same
And I feel it coming

And it hits like I'm being buried alive
It's the opposite of a beautiful bird of paradise
And it hurts sometimes, there's too many lights
And I'm blinded by you, a beautiful bird of paradise
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

Let's roll the dice, I'll risk it all
To run away with you my bird of paradise

And it hits like I'm being buried alive
It's the opposite of a beautiful bird of paradise
And it hurts sometimes, there's too many lights
And I'm blinded by you, a beautiful bird of paradise
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
