Redbird
Verse 1:
I feel my heart start to
Sink to the ground when you
Say my name that
Fast
The burning rush of
The heat of your touch
I just
Want this to last (oh)
In the darkness
Without any light
I don’t
See the flight of the past
With a strike
From the flame of your side
I see
The shadows cast
Chorus:
Start off right
Strangers in the night
Keep the flame
No there’ll be no more ashes
While we feel no fear
Everything’s so clear
Just light me up
Like a box of matches
Verse 2:
Stow away all emotions at bay
Keep em’ locked
Never know
When you’ll need them
Push the lock
Throw away the key
Can't risk the thought
Of anybody to grab them
Light the spark
Escape away from the dark
Skim the room
This is all that you’re left with
Make the most
Take a seat have a toast
Fell the hope grow
Pushing it’s own width
Chorus:
Start off right
Strangers in the night
Keep the flame
No there’ll be no more ashes
While we feel no fear
Everything’s so clear
Just light me up
Like a box of matches
Like a redbird (oh)
Like a redbird
Oh
Oh
Like a redbird
Bridge:
Feeling the fire
We didn’t know what it could do
Deep in your chest never at rest
Never anywhere to go
Never anywhere to go
No where that we could’ve known
The ash from the ember
Laying out there in it’s cage
Taking awards being the force
We needed to push back the faith
We needed to bring back our faith
We needed to bring back out faith
Chorus:
Start off right
Strangers in the night
Keep the flame
No there’ll be no more ashes
While we feel no fear
Everything’s so clear
Just light me up
Like a box of matches
Like a redbird (oh)
Like a redbird
Oh
Oh
Like a redbird (oh)
Like a redbird
Oh
Oh
Like a redbird
