Select language to translate this lyric
Look into the microscope at any major city by the sea
There you'll find the missing link between missed opportunity and me
Going into overdrive I underwhelm the world
Without my charms I have set the course to fail
A ship without a sail tends to roll away
I look up
Clouds of white inside my paper cup
And though it's undeniable it's so absurd
Trying to get to heaven on a little bird
Trying to get to heaven on a bird
Have you ever watched a life go spinning down an omnipresent drain?
Can you spare a dime to help alleviate a burning-barrel brain?
Pushing through the afternoon
With nothing but these rags upon my back
I am waiting for a break
The world I will forsake when I take the reigns
I look up
Clouds of white inside my paper cup
And though it's undeniable it's so absurd
Trying to get to heaven on a little bird
Trying to get to heaven on a bird
