Power Bird Lyrics

Kleenex Girl Wonder Power Bird

Sometimes one outsmarts the other
And sometimes we outrun ourselves
Sometimes it's not worth the bother
But sometimes you can even tell

'Cause I'm not thinking for me anymore
I can't tell what I think it should be anymore
And there's something that you can't see anymore
Though it's right before your eyes

But I won't think of you any longer
At least not how I've tended to think
Well, I am a man but I could have been stronger
I'll cut the line and we'll both watch it sink

'Cause I can't let you be fazed anymore
I can't hope it'll be reappraised anymore
Or maybe I'm just not amazed anymore
And that's probably just as well

And all of the words sort of sting nowadays
There's a different aura to spring nowadays
It's always ideas about the thing nowadays
But never the thing itself

But this bird too will someday learn to fly
And when she does, she'll fly away from you
I had a whole life planned for you and I
But then, you probably had one too
And I will never let you fall
The body dies, the body's beauty lives
The body lies, the body's heart forgives
So fly away now, one and all
