Red Bird Lyrics - Singles - Addict

I've been dreaming of a red bird 

And the peace of its gentle wings 

It's an omen of better things 

I've been waking with the same pain 

That makes me want to sleep 

And dream of a red bird 

So build us a nest for I've chosen to leave 

For I am so so heavy here 

Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting 

With my wings 

I will of left the weight behind me that 

The blood of men brings 

Where there once was despair 

Tonight I will be free 

And the slings and the stones that uncovered 

My bones will have flown my memory 

I've been dreaming of a red bird 

It sings of a way out, it sings of release 

It's been tapping on my window 

To remind me it's waiting 

And that I have a choice 

So build us a nest for I've chosen to leave 

For I am so heavy here 

Take me away from here 

I am not equipped for such strain 

Take away the fear 

How do you prepare for the pain 

Now I'm leaving with the red bird 

And as my arms leak again 

I am so happy here
