parliament of fools - free/falling lyrics

[intro: alex]
who
is free?
not
me
who
is free?
not
me
who
is free?
not
me
[verse 1: the bird]
what do you think about?
what do you think about?
can’t think of nothing now
can’t think of nothing now
what do you wanna be?
don’t really know what’s me
that’s what i wanna be
i wanna be falling free

[verse 2: the bird]
i wanna soar free as a bird
i wanna do something with words
been wanting my voice to be heard
no more twiddling thumbs on the curb
maybe i’ll get there one day
never know what they might say
i’m praying for a lucky break
make something that gives them the shakes
an industry artist that relates
a man that twitter won’t hate
a celebrity capable of change
a savior to free us from fate

[verse 3: the bird]
yet here i am at a locked door
viewed as a new blood on foreign tour
shut out by murmurs of civil war
the industry doesn’t want any more
don’t wanna carve out that rotten core
the heart of darkness is the ground floor
f+ck all that noise, don’t want that for me
i wanna be something that’s flying free
stretch out my wings, gliding over seas
different from eagles, there was no we
more like a phoenix, i make belief
least if i fall, then i’m falling free
[verse 4: the bird]
blood stains the walls bright
america’s shoe shine
who here can sleep at night?
how the f+ck can you sleep at night?
earth tucked me in last night
said it’ll be alright
that was a f+cking lie
last words before she died

[verse 5: the bird]
i got my wings clipped (early)
expiry date (thirty)
now i got issues (therapy)
how they gon do me (dirty)
oh am i getting too (wordy)
so you don’t like us (hurting)
you like us more when we’re (flirty)
heard it from a little (birdy)
flew to the top i’m (turning)
stories inside me are (burning)
artistic struggle is (yearning)
industry shooters are (lurking)

[verse 6: the bird]
maybe i am a bird
maybe i am a bird
maybe i can’t be hurt
maybe i can’t be hurt
i been drowning in so many woes
fly to the surface that no one knows
self absorption is what i oppose
give me the spotlight to steal the show
i won’t be blinded by fame
i won’t be sounding the same
i won’t be compromised bae
please do not worry about me
all i wanna do is save
all i wan+

{verse 1: the gunman, the boss}
i buried a bird today
another one tried to escape
i shot down a bird today
another one for the mass grave
don’t think i can care anymore
can’t feel when you’re doing this work
can’t hear heartbeats under the floor
don’t give in to the pounds at the door
i’m thinking i’m giving up thinking
i’m awake then asleep, then i’m breathing
i try to know nothing, keep sleeping
fear faces familiar, they’re weeping
the more that see them the more i start feeling
the feeling is screaming, i’m trying, i’m heeling
i was doing my job but now i’m just k!lling
well, my good gunman, you’ve done a great job
we’ve heard lots about you, you’re crème of the crop
and we’ve something to show you, please come to the top
i’m shown dismembered birds reassembled with glue sticks
caged sparrows are singing but that isn’t music
the night raven copies but out of attunement

[verse 2: charlie]
i buried yet another bird today
wait wait, hold up, what’d i just say?
what was that all about? that dream again?
wake up, snap out of it, we need a plan
none of us feeling it, shouldn’t’ve ran
shaking, room’s colder than lake michigan
infirmary’s so drab, the walls are so tan
kitty poster gives advice like “i can”
waking up ben, yo we gotta go
alex already, he’s at the door
max on the keys, yeah he’s makin the score
time to escape, yo get down on the floor
