  • The only one that's hurting
    Is the only one alive
    You wonder if it's worth it
    Been burned too many times
    Lay down in the tall grass
    Look up at the sky
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies

    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies

    That wicked call to barkin'
    That's workin' on my dog
    Coming out the darkness
    Mixing with the fog
    The devil's in the tree line
    Full moon on the rise
    And suddenly he's free as
    Every bird that flies

    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies

    Tryin' to get to heaven
    With all this hell to pay
    It only gets you deeper
    With every working day
    When all you got is nothing
    And you're waiting 'round to die
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies

    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies

    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Every bird that flies
    Suddenly you're free as
    Every bird that flies Publisher: BMG Rights Management
