Dylan Owen - The Kite Flyers lyrics

[Chorus 1] These are your directions if you want to learn to fly If you're sick of feeling down like it's never been your time If you've always been an artist, drawing circles around your eyes Sing I ain't never had nothing and I have been nothing, but that's alright there's no need to be confined I'll lead you to the deepest of the dreamy sky's Sing it with me I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind, and, I ain't never been nothing except ready to fly [Verse 1] So leave your grief behind and put your bearings down like that shoe box in the empty closet of your parents house Lets take this causality count and tear it apart Even the man in the moon's getting sick of sitting in the dark I went to school but never learned my lesson and yo I still feel for you, save your letters on my dresser I'm not free of blame, I too deserve a lecture but I figured out elaborately that it's whatever I know I've been wasting time like a broken watch head against the grandfather clock choking hoping for a spot I've been joking with my friends about the end and when we will meet again If you don't know yourself you better not just let it be my friend I'm not a comedian but I could make you laugh I'm not a hooker but I got a dirty past So here is a map for you because you're lost among the cracks in the road get up and do it fast [Chorus 2] (Lets hear it now) So these are your directions if you want to learn to fly If you're sick of feeling down like it's never been your time If you've always been an actor, running parallel lines Sing I ain't never had nothing and I ain't been nothing, but that's alright there's no need to be confined I will lead you to the deepest of the dreamy sky's Sing it with me I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind, and, I ain't never been nothing except ready to fly [Verse 2] So we gone change to maintain A depth greater than my [?] ca**ette tapes Say my name in ancient in extremely bad print Yo don't ever say your pain is getting worse than my chap lips So we got to get some air to make it out 'cause I've been waking up from dreaming on your fake foam couch Am I mistaken, I was flying over mountain tops and caves and then I landed and spit a rap for the administration [Chorus 3] These are your directions if you want to learn to fly If you're sick of feeling down like it's never been your time If you've always been a firefighter, burning inside Sing I ain't never had nothing and I ain't been nothing, but that's alright there's no need to be confined I will lead you to the deepest of the dreamy sky's Sing it with me I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind, and, I ain't never been nothing except ready to fly [Verse 3] I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind I ain't never been nothing but a kid with a half broken smile My bare feet will freeze on the tile as I call up myself and say "hey its been a while" I know this past year was filled with frustration but me and Mr. Stranger had some great conversations And I'm finding hope in little things, eradicating doubt Singing I ain't never had nothing but that won't get me down [Chorus 4] These are your directions if you want to learn to fly If you're sick of feeling down like it's never been your time If you smoke weed but never get your altitude high Sing I ain't never had nothing and I ain't been nothing, but that's alright there's no need to be confined I will lead you to the deepest of the dreamy sky's Sing it with me I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind, and, I ain't never been nothing except ready to fly [Chorus 5] So these are your directions if you want to learn to fly If you're sick of feeling down like it's never been your time If you've always been a speaker at the dead poets society Sing I ain't never had nothing and I ain't been nothing, but that's alright there's no need to be confined I will lead you to the deepest of the dreamy sky's Sing it with me I ain't never had nothing except what's on my mind, and, I ain't never been nothing except ready to fly (Away) (Home)
