sonnerie téléphone portable pour I saw a bird fly away
Video clip

I asked the habitual party goer,
Just how high she thought she'd get?
And i asked the ethereal girls,
(ethereal girls)
If they were floating yet?

And so i asked the light of the day
"what's this rush for heaven?"
And i saw a bird fly away and i could not ask again

The tabloid tainted actress knows
The myth of higher ground
The thing she got from playin' a nun
She got from sleepin' around

And so i asked the light of the day
"what's this rush for heaven?"
And i saw a bird fly away and i could not ask again

Do you feelin' the mother (incomprehensible)
The decaying in my tent?
I wonder whose laughin' at

And i've been running uphill
Panting, punching at the air
Fighting what's been pushing me down
Like i can't see it there

And so i asked the light of the day
"what's this rush for heaven?"
And i saw a bird fly away and i could not ask again

And i saw all this climbing, climbing
Just as far from heaven
And i saw a bird fly away and i started climbing again

Whose laughin' at
Do you feelin' the mother (incomprehensible)
The decaying in my tent?
