Tobias Jesso Jr. - Bird Set Free lyrics

[Verse 1] Clipped wings, I was a broken thing Had a voice, had a voice but I could not sing You would wind me down I struggled on the ground So lost, the line had been crossed Had a voice, had a voice but I could not talk You held me down I struggle to fly now [Refrain] Oh, but there's a scream inside that we all try to hide We hold on so tight, we cannot deny Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive Oh, yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide We hold on so tight, but I don't wanna die, no I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die [Chorus] And I don't care if I sing off key I found myself in my melodies I sing for love, I sing for me I shout it out like a bird set free No I don't care if I sing off key I found myself in my melodies I sing for love, I sing for me I'll shout it out like a bird set free [Post-Chorus] I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free [Verse 2] Now I fly, hit the high notes I have a voice, have a voice, hear me roar tonight You held me down But I fought back loud [Refrain] Oh, cause there's a scream inside that we all try to hide We hold on so tight, but we cannot deny Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive Oh, yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide We hold on so tight, but I don't wanna die, no I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die yeah [Chorus] And I don't care if I sing off key I found myself in my melodies I sing for love, I sing for me I shout it out like a bird set free No I don't care if I sing off key I found myself in my melodies I sing for love, I sing for me I'll shout it out like a bird set free [Post-Chorus I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free I'll shout it out like a bird set free
