How Birds Sigh

If only, if only, the young birdy sighs Humans had wings, and could take to the skies Being tethered to the ground is a sad way to die Poor humans do it The thought makes me cry Us humans say f*ck, we look up and away We think that the skies where we'll end up some day We got no way to prove it, it's just what we say We lie in the ground We rot and decay Birds fly everywhere They live pure and true We keep tryin' to join them So we can fly too Us humans say shit as we look straight ahead We look at the earth and wonder how we're not dead We're not going around with remorse or dread If the earth was a human We'd have chopped off it's head Us birds say "chirp chirp" as we flew with a dove Up in the air the wind fits like a glove We know all that matters is to share all your love Don't look to the sky There's nothing above If only, if only, us poor humans cry We could grow wings and take to the sky's We're tethered to the ground, and still tryin' a fly Some of us can't do it The thought makes me sigh
