Bird, I wish that I could fly with you
Over land and oceans, too
Just be still in my head for a minute
Bird tell me what it means to be
Free from all misery 
Of the world and everything in it

The clouds make the dark
The dark makes the stars
The stars make my heart ache
Still

But as much as it hurts, as much as it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, it's better off than feeling nothing
As much as it hurts, oh, it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, yeah, I am

Bird, I see that you don't look down
Show me how to not look down 
I'm so weary of keeping up
Bird, everywhere you go is home
Even though you're all alone 
You never seem lonely, do you?

The clouds are not real
The stars are not real
But this longing I feel is

But as much as it hurts, as much as it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, it's better off than feeling nothing
As much as it hurts, oh, it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, yeah, I am

As much as it hurts, as much as it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, it's better off than feeling nothing
As much as it hurts, oh, it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, better off than feeling nothing
As much as it hurts, as much as it hurts
I know that I'm feeling something, yeah, I am
As much as it hurts, oh it hurts
I know I'm feeling something, yeah, I am

Yeah, I'm living my life like it's golden, golden
Now I'm living my life like it's golden
As much as it hurts
As much as it hurts
I-I-I'm living my life likes it's golden, golden
Now, I'm living my life like it's golden
As much as it hurts
As much as it hurts, oh

Yeah, yeah, it hurts, it hurts
I'm feeling something, yes, I am
I'm feeling something, yes, I am, ooh
As much as it hurts
As much as it hurts, ooh-ha
