Lyrics
Feel like a bird tied to a tether
Not quite how it's meant to be
I'm looking around at all these feathers
That I don't even need
Tonight I think that something happened
When I decided to finally try
Maybe to you it looked like jumping
But I think I touched the sky
Cause I almost flew today
I almost flew today
There's not much of a tale to tell
Cause after all I mostly fell
But I almost flew today
Sometimes life is rough on living
Seems like I'm barely getting by
And this hard ground is not forgiving
But I know someday I will fly
Don't take away this harness yet
And I think I might still need this net
And let me know if you've got some hope to spare
