Rest up on my shoulders, I can take the weight Just can't fly away, don't worry about me Drowned honey over the bee, seen some things that you wouldn't believe We kill and break in the name of the free Don't get too close, you slip, and you're bound They'll take all, make sure you stay above ground With high hopes, they'll spit them all out The only way now is down We take what we think we deserve, and I follow the same Can't seem to break away from the passage of the rain Nature's way of throwing the key, know I'm not the selfish gene But the selfish type and can't get it right Don't get too close, you slip, and you're bound They'll take all, make sure you stay above ground With high hopes, they'll spit them all out The only way now is down Too sticky, I can't release Trapped my wing, there's no hope for me All I am is what you have seized Just a broken bird on the tree (broken bird on the tree) Too sticky, I can't release You captured with such an ease Not the first of the tree to be naive Too sticky, I can't release
