You got me in the palm of your hand, as if I'm just a bird
Holdin' on so tight, to make sure I'll stay right there
But at the same time you're holdin' on so loose
To let me know I'm not that special of a bird to you anymore
I'm trying to escape
I'm sittin' in the palm of your hand, and I am just a bird
Wish that I could stay here all the time, by your side
But at the same time I'm trying to escape
Because I know I'm not that special of a bird to you anymore
I'm trying to escape
And what I am leaving
What I'm leaving behind this time is you and your wicked mind
Yeah you and your wicked mind
Drag me around at night, far away and out of sight
To weigh me down, yes you weigh me down
And it's not alright, I'm not alright
And maybe in time, I'll be just fine
Why don't you hold me tight?
Please hold me tight and reassure I don't take flight
