In feathers we came
We learned from your ways
And the tricks up your sleeve
And we grew

But the distance between
The earth and our feet
Was the only thing
Never to change

But it opened our eyes
Something they missed
Something they put away back on the shelf
And they can't see it through the immaculate dress
Sink like a stranger instead of the one they call home

We can't believe in everything we hear
Diamonds by association don't count
And I'm not saying we've got it all figured out
(What good is just one wing?)
Why accept silver when you're given gold
(What good is just one wing?)

Stuck in your ways
Tossed about by the sea
Waving around your gun
That you'll never shoot

Waste not life's grace
(What good is just one wing?)
And don't assume that we are all the same
(What good is just one wing?)

Stand up turn and draw
I am not them, we are not them, they are not us
And we don't relate
We are as much the same as lungs to the sea
Please don't confuse the heart, behind the name

Putting their voices on top of the crowd
So that everyone hears they are mighty and great
Maybe I'm broken and maybe I'm shaking
But at least I say what I say

And I confess
We grew bored from your ways
We grew bored from your ways
We grew bored from your ways
We grew bored from your ways
We grew bored from your ways

We-We want more
More, more
We want more
More, more

We can't step away
From the ocean
Just because the waves are thick
Oh we press
