Bird Gone Wild Lyrics

Daddy was an electrician, fingers to the bone
Mama was a seamstress, stitched everything she owned
Crossing the Atlantic, a dream over the tide
Soldiers, we were ready there, approaching the front line

Don't let me down
I'm beating 'round a cage like a bird gone wild
Come back around
Strong hands, pull back the wire

Strange thoughts and images of what awaited me
My mind was painting pictures only I could see
A traitor, I was too far gone and belonged to either side
Now I’m alone, they return way behind the tide

Don't let me down
I'm beating 'round a cage like a bird gone wild
Come back around
Strong hands, pull back the wire

Don't let me down
I'm beating 'round a cage like a bird gone wild
Come back around
Strong hands, pull back the wire
Don't let me down
I'm beating 'round a cage like a bird gone wild
Come back around
Strong hands, pull back the wire
Pull back the wire
