emily saliers - fly lyrics

Loading...

yes we’ve been hit by a sucker punch
minding the business of progress, there was a bad one in the bunch
rubbing our jaws, rising up slowly from the dust
shaking our heads and wondering what just happened to us

i’ve spent all my life thinking we could have a meeting of the minds
when i was a child, i thought like a child, and now it’s not like i’m einstein
but there’s satisfaction in knowing the equal and opposite reaction

fly, with the flock
over the land and the cities of the nation
you’ll know your moves simply by joining in the murmuration
black wings across a beautiful sky, fly

i’ll be honest, there are times i hang on hour to hour
but the clear voice of my conscience speaks to me like a higher power
and i look to the north dakota lands where they’re laying their lives down
science and prophecy say you can’t penetrate the sacred crown so

fly, with the flock
over the land and the cities of the nation
you’ll know your moves simply by joining in the murmuration
black wings across a beautiful sky, fly

and they were very sad, and they asked him, “is it i? is it i?”
and you will ask that question, get your answer by and by

i can’t pretend to feel or know anyone else’s sorrow
but i’ve had a little of my own, and so as we face tomorrow
if you’re in need of an ally, i’ll be by your side
we’ve been given wings, songs to sing, and when they hold us down
we’re just bound to

fly, with the flock
over the land and the cities of the nation
you’ll know your moves simply by joining in the murmuration

fly, with the flock
over the land and the cities of the nation
you’ll know your moves simply by joining in the murmuration
black wings across a beautiful sky, fly
