This Bird Has Flown - The Ghost Club

Someday, I’ll be so far away from all of you

All this unspoken ridicule

You’ll never rule my life like the way that you used to

I find I am much better off out on my own

Maybe a house, but not a home

You’ll wake to find I’ve changed my mind

I’m sorry, but this bird has flown

This bird has flown

So, let these fools run free

To be the ones they want to be

These chains, they’re falling off all over me

My friends, I hope you get to see

That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies

Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me

It’s time for me to spread my wings

I feel fine and feeling fine is good enough

I’m alone and though it may be rough

I can’t lie, I’m free to fly, I don’t belong to anyone

Had a friend and I put you on a pedestal

I may be dumb, but I’m no fool

So keep your throne, it’s all you own

And all that you’ll ever know

This bird has flown

So let these fools run free

To be the ones they want to be

These chains, they’re falling off all over me

My friends, I hope you get to see

That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies

Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me

It’s time for me to spread my wings

You will never be able to exam me and clip these wings

And I know that all that I can see is the open sky out in front of me

You will never be able to exam me and clip these wings

And I know that all that I can see is the open sky out in front of me

So let these fools run free

To be the ones they want to be

These chains, they’re falling off all over me

My friends, I hope you get to see

That I don’t need your pleas and empty, cold apologies

Your friends just haven’t been real friends to me

It’s time for me to spread my wings
