lyrics

Frozen all winter, fly, you’re again a living being.
You’re trying to break free but you don’t know how.
You need to stretch your wings on this warm sunny day in spring.
Is there anything sadder than a fly on a screen?

You’re so close. Almost.
And I can’t bear to see it end this way.
So long comatose.
Ice broke.
Unprovoked.
It’s all gonna pass someday.

I want to set you free but I see a bird up in the trees.
Well, fuck it, cause everybody's gotta eat.
I watched you fly so high, then I watched your spirit die.
Sometimes I feel like you and I are the same.

You’re so close. Almost.
And I can’t bear to see it end this way.
So long comatose.
Ice broke.
Unprovoked.
It’s all gonna pass someday.

You’re so close. Almost.
And I can’t bear to see it end this way.
So long comatose.
Ice broke.
Unprovoked.
We’re all gonna pass someday.
