Back to WORK


Underwing

You're high
The clouds get in your eyes
The winds hide all the cries below


I know
How the warnings always sound
From fossils in the ground to crows 


But baby where you're going
I've already been
So don't you spread your wings too thin 


You're gone
I lost you in the sun
You never get rained on or reigned in 


But flying high is fleeting
You can't forget the ground
Your new crowd's going to scatter
Once gravity throws down 


Yeh, even though it gets me
Sick to see you win
Well now don't you spread your wings too thin 


You're high
And sure I know just how that feels to get
So deep down I know this is all wasted breath
It’s gonna take you being shown,
Take you being laid low, and then you’ll know
Your wings weren't just to fly.

Fly.
Fly. fly, fly 

Fly high
Fly... bye, bye, bye

See, flying is but a fling
The sky’s not all you need take underwing
