Birds Will Never Fly

Ooh I've been here a hundred different times
All the people never change
Ooh I don't know the reasons for my crimes
But I just fall on my own

I was always out in front of it
Waging war against the storms when I felt
Overwhelmed and withheld
You and I where like a pair of thieves
Stealing from the rich and giving to whoever we saw fit
Now you're over it

I've been wrong a thousand different times
But I don't know
I don't know this time, ooh
You were there through every single lie and crime
What do you think of your son now

But wait a minute I was here for you
Now you're sick, you're sick
I'm sick of it too
And I, I wonder why

Ooh, I've asked myself a million different ways
But all the answers look the same, ooh
And this is why the birds don't ever fly as high
As you intended them to

Ooh, I've been wrong a thousand different times
But I don't know
I don't know this time, ooh
You were there through every single lie and crime
How can you look at your son now
