BRIGHTEN
"We Are Birds"

We're so dark by night, I am lost
Directions getting faded
Remember what you're taught
She's so bright, I'll use her as light
She's so much more than decoration

She can fly, and she's no angel in the sky
She's a witch but she knows better than to take me when she flys
and I miss how she looks me in the eyes
Oh this sounds like desperation

If you're a bird then I'm a bird
But if you cant fly then neither will I
Cause then love is not the right time, to die (to die, to die)

Her wings are spread,
She's stuck here on the ground
She's not heavy, she's my world
I'll carry her around
I hear her breathing, that's my favorite sound

If you're a bird then I'm a bird
But if you cant fly then neither will I (will I)
Cause then love is not the right time to die
We still have our whole life to be with you and Im done (to be with you and I'm done)
And make this life a good one

If you're a bird then I'm a bird
But if you cant fly then neither will I (will I)
Cause then love is not the right time to die
But if you cant fly then neither will I

Brighten
