I envy the birds because they fly away
And oh I know I'm grounded constantly
Sometimes I pray oh Lord, help me fly away
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhh
I envy the trees because they're so grounded
And all of the leaves remind me of all that you did
You left me stranded in my dreams
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh
I envy the old me because I was
So much stronger than I am now
I guess Ill just carry carry on
Singing these pitiful songs
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhh
I envy the birds
