Lyrics Alkaline Trio

Alkaline Trio

Broken Wing

It ain't hard to get lost

When you forget

Where you come from

Turn that dial to the right

Push that pedal down

Don't say goodbye

Just for a drive

Along for the ride

It'd be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing

Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak

But it sure won't make me believe

It's hell you say and it gets worse you know

How many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no

place I wanna go?

If that sunshine's really gonna kill us all why is

every day so cold?

Why is everything so fucking cold?

It never melts away

It'd be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing

Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak

But it sure won't make me believe

That's the top of your lungs and the bottom of your

heart

It's at the top of your lungs

It's at the bottom of your heart

It all as deep as your heart goes

I understand the things that keep you up

And I know that you still feel

And I know your heart is hemorrhaging

You need some time to heal

And now the traffic lights there on your street

Flash yellow all the time

And the mirror in the bathroom

It looks cracked in the wrong light

But walk out through your threshold

Through your lungs and move on down the stairs

And let the things you love come back to you

In time we'll all get there

It'd be real nice just to fly away

And escape everything

But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing

Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak

But it sure won't make me believe
