Danger bird, he flies alone And he rides the wind back to his home Although his wings have turned to stone And we used to be so calm Now I think about you all day long 'Cause you've been with another man Here you are and here I am That's the moment that he cracked long ago in the museum with his friends The jailbird takes the raps And he finds himself spread-eagled on the tracks But the training that he learned will get him nowhere fast
And I know we should be free But freedom's just a prison to me 'Cause I lied to keep it kind When I left you far behind With the rain pounding on his back he recalls the moment that he cracked long ago in the museum with his friends And like those memories the rain keeps pounding down, down, down And though these wings have turned to stone I can fly fly fly away Watch me fly above the city Like a shadow on the sky Fly, fly, fly
