Lyrics

Isolated from the outside
Clouds have taken all the light
I have no control, it seems my
Thoughts wander all
Of the time, when I try to
Live life without you
Birds falling down the rooftops
Out of the sky like raindrops
No air, no pride
If being myself is what I do wrong
Then I would rather not be right
Hopes turned into fear and with my
One wing I can't fly
With sunrise, embrace my
Dreams tight and that's why
Birds falling down the rooftops
Out of the sky like raindrops
No air, no pride
Birds
To a place without fear, with no moonlight
(To a place without moonlight and fear)
All I need are trees and flowers and some sunlight
(All I need is trees, some flowers and sunlight)
Where memories are being made and where the old one dies
Where love ain't lost
Birds falling down the rooftops
Out of the sky like raindrops
Birds falling down the rooftops
Out of the sky like raindrops
No air, no pride
Thаt's why birdѕ don't fly
