Bird in an Aeroplane

[Verse 1]

Feathered to the tips

Light weight, but strong

I can only go this long

Iron, steel, and smoke

Your power is endless

I'm only flesh and bones

[Pre-Chorus]

Every machine has a promise to break

Stuck in a dream that I may not escape

[Chorus]

I pray for hurricanes

You take off when I want to stay

Out of steam, I'm off terrain

I'm a bird in an aeroplane

[Verse 2]

Crossing continents

We're going in loops

Tell me will we ever land

Longing to return

To somewhere I've known

Something quite familiar (Oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus]

Every machine has a promise to break

Stuck in a dream that I may not escape

[Chorus]

I pray for hurricanes

You take off when I want to stay

Out of steam, I'm off terrain

I'm a bird in an aeroplane

[Bridge]

We're flying over mountains higher every day

I'm trying to keep up, trying to match your game

While you are gaining height, I'm fading into grey

And away

[Chorus]

I pray for hurricanes

You take off when I want to stay

Out of steam, I'm off terrain

I'm a bird in an aeroplane

I pray for hurricanes

You take off when I want to stay

Out of steam, I'm off terrain

I'm a bird in an aeroplane
