When you were leaving from your hometown
You watched the city disappear
'Cuz your father said you were no good
And your mother, she filled you with her fear
Yeah, you
And you were flying towards the low sun
Far away from city walls
Catch the wings of sparrows
That fill the valley with their calls
To you . . . you
I know you try so hard
You get caught in a jar
Where you can’t breath
I know you’re not to blame
'Cuz everyone’s just so insane
We’re strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Here among the damaged ones
We're tethered to the cruel horizon
But you should know all that by now
I can’t tell you what to do
I won’t be your entertainment
I won’t be a feather in your ruin
But I know you try so hard
You get caught in a jar
Where you can’t breath
I know you’re not to blame
'Cuz everyone’s just so insane
We’re strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Here among the damaged ones
Tethered to the cruel horizon
But I know we try so hard
We get caught in a jar
Where we can’t breath
I know we're all the same
'Cuz everyone’s just so insane
We’re strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Such strange creatures
Here among the damaged ones
We're tethered to the cruel horizon
