Birdie Lyrics - Avril Lavigne

[Verse 1] 

Like a bird locked up in a cage called love 

He clipped her wings when she was born to fly 

He said, "A pretty bird, you can't sing 

But I'll buy you diamonds and ruby rings" 

Like a bird locked up in a cage 

[Chorus] 

And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? 

How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? 

And oh, you can't hold me down, no 

Oh, you can't pull me down 

So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) 

So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) 

So birdie fly away

[Verse 2] 

I'm tired of getting lost inside this maze all day 

Your twisted words are getting to my head 

I say, "And no more glasses and seein' stars 

And no more bruises and battle scars" 

Like a bird locked up in a cage 

[Chorus] 

And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? 

How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? 

And oh, you can't hold me down, no 

Oh, you can't pull me down 

So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) 

So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) 

So birdie, fly away

[Bridge] 

I ain't your prisoner 

You can't lock me up no more 

I'll show you what I'm worth 

Take back what I deserve 

I ain't your prisoner 

You can't chain me down no more 

Goddamn, it's gonna hurt 

So fly away, little bird 

[Chorus] 

And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? 

How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? 

And oh, you can't hold me down, no 

Oh, you can't pull me down 

[Outro] 

So birdie, fly away (Oh, oh, oh) 

Can you hear me? (Oh, oh, oh) 

Are you listenin'? (Oh, oh, oh) 

Set me free, set me free (Oh, oh, oh) 

Can you hear me? (Oh, oh, oh) 

Are you listenin'? (Oh, oh, oh) 

Set me free, set me free
