Lyrics – Wings

Breezy
Darling, you look like you could use a little easy
A little less of the stress, some yes, yes, yes – a little breezy
If you find you just don’t have the time, I can always share some of mine

Try to clear out your mind and be kind to your inner child
Take them out for a walk and let them tell you about the sky
If you find you just don’t have the time, you know they can always, talk to mine

In this messed up world it can be hard to keep good things in mind
So much broken, so much breaking, so many deep breaths, hard to come by
If you find you just don’t have the time, I can always share some of mine

I’m not saying that I can fix it, but I’ve got time to listen

Let me lighten your load ease that weight from your shoulders
Tell me what’s got you down, what’s making you wander
If you find you just don’t have the time, I can always share some of mine

I’m not, I’m not saying I can fix it, but I’ve got time to listen
I’m not saying I can fix it, but I’ve got time cause I’m here

When I Get My Wings Back
You know this just does not seem like my time
Everything I touch turns to rust or withers on the vine
You know sometimes I-I can’t get out of my own way
When the weight of these bad habits wears down my will to change

We all have our struggles we all have our trials
Just wish I wasn’t so blessed with all these hills to climb
See bad times don’t last forever there’s always better days
Not talking about some old heaven, just an easier phase

When I get my wings back, you know I’m gonna’ fly
I won’t stay down forever as long as there’s a sky
See bad times they don’t last forever – there’s always better days
Not talking about some old heaven, just an easier phase

When I get my wings back, you know I’m gonna fly
I won’t stay down forever as long as there’s a sky
When I get my wings back, now, now, just you wait
Be up so high you’re sure that I am never gonna land this way
Ain’t ever gonna land, ain’t ever gonna land this way
Ain’t ever gonna land, ain’t ever gonna land

Distraction
Like a golden puppy in a tennis ball factory
Crossed with a drama kid all hopped up on candy
Wrapped in a beauty I can barely comprehend

No, you don’t have A. D. D.
You just think lot of thoughts simultaneously
And somehow still inspire me to say

Well don’t worry, don’t worry, it’s okay
I wasn’t using this heart anyway

And when you drive me to distraction
Dangling boundless satisfaction
You know I will always find my way back home

And when you leave it up to me to fashion
Something like love from the little you ration
And cheap mementos of our escapades

No don’t you worry, don’t you worry, it’s okay
I wasn’t using this old heart of mine anyway, baby
I wasn’t using this old heart of mine anyway

Barbed-Wire Words
Can you hear those barbed-wire-words tumbling out of your mouth
Or do your speaker & your listeners work on different frequencies now
It’s like you think you’re talking down to some little kid
Who’s gonna need some therapy to deal with this

And when you say I don’t understand you
I think you’re using that word wrong
And when you say you don’t understand me
Sometimes you’ve just got to let it go

I don’t know what’s gotten into you, in this last bit of time
Seems like everything I say or do just crosses some line
I don’t know where the borders are drawn or what they’re holding in
But I believe not everything I do is a sin

And when you say I don’t understand you
I think you’re using that word wrong
And when you say you don’t understand me
sometimes you’ve just got to let it go

I’m not saying I don’t see a future but something’s got to change
My love can only stand so long in the face of rage
I hope you can figure out what you’re really angry about
But I have my doubts

And when you say I don’t understand you
I think you’re using that word wrong
And when you say you don’t understand me, understand me
Sometimes you’ve just got to let it go
Sometimes you’ve just got to let it go

Rust
I wanna make a big old fuss, all, over you.
I wanna make believe everything you say, is true
Never get any kind of rust with you
I wanna turn into dust with you
dust with you

I want to know what, set you so
asparkle inside
I want to get past just what makes me
try to hide sometimes
Never get any kind of rest with you
I wanna turn into dust with you
dust with you

I wanna make all my, plans with you
Sometimes I just want to throw up my hands with you
Never get any kind of r*st with you
I wanna turn into dust with you
dust with you
