Why do the birds of prey never stray far from the motorway |
|
Hover above us in the space between the hard shoulder and the sky I'm enraptured, I'm captured, the car zooms by |
|
Maybe I will never feel this free again maybe I'll count |
|
These days of inbetween are something I could do without |
|
Down, down and I swoop down, remind me how freedom feels |
|
'Cos right now I am a falcon |
|
I'm circling up there with them |
|
and I need to wing, I need to sing |
|
All the choices I could make from the backseat of the car |
|
We get a plane to Aberdeen and I feel nervous |
|
Then calm descends and I think whatever I learned from this |
|
Living is dying and dying is a doorway anyway |
|
And I cross my shoulders as I look down on the cities |
|
They look like motherboards lit up so pretty |
|
Down down down when I swoop down |
|
Remind me how perspective feels |
|
Cos right now I am a falcon |
|
and I'm circling up there with them |
|
and I need some wings, I need to sing |
|
I fear I hunger forever if I dont swoop now |
|
And I fear I'll hunger forever |
|
And I fear I'll hunger forever |
|
Yeah I know I'll hunger forever |
|
If I bottle it now |
|
I get so scared I get so scared I get so utterly bewared |
|
My ego takes flight and I wonder how I fared |
|
so scared, so scared, so utterly bewared |
|
Humility lands in a wonder |
|
Why I cared at all |
|
I just should have shared it all |
|
Why do the birds of pray never stray far from the motorway |
|
Hover above us in the space between our shoulder and the sky I'm enraptured, I'm captured, as the car glides by |
|
Maybe I will never feel this free again maybe i'll count |
|
These days of inbetween are something i could do without |
|
Down, down and I swoop down, remind me how freedom feels |
|
'Cos right now I am a falcon |
|
and I'm circling up there with them |
|
and I need to wing, I need to sing |
|
All the choices I could make from the backseat of the car |
|
Oh the conversations I have in my head |
|
All the things I only wish that I had said |
|
All the dreams I've catched and all the plans I've hatched |
|
mmmmm - in the backseat of the car |
|
I'm always the passenger x5 |
