Beyond Illusion - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Now you can address me beyond illusion

With a cigarette tucked deep inside your chest

In the past I was a local loser

And I’m bound to say that I’m still on my back

We were born to fly alone

We were born to fight alone

So you pushed me until I was one with the fire

But it still was not enough to bring me back

Daddy said it is getting late

No time to wait too late to wait

For what you asked and I reply

We were born to fly alone

We were born to fight alone

We were born to fly alone

We were born to fight…

Maybe it’ll be different when we give ourselves to the body and the open wound

Tiptoe past the officer’s stars

The shots come down from Hillary’s house

The sun is up, what is dangerous here

Why did no one stop us from chasing our tears

Maybe it’ll be different when we give ourselves to the body and the open wound

So now you can address me beyond illusion

With a cigarette tucked deep inside your chest

In the past I was a local loser

And I’m bound to say that I’m still on my back

We were born to fly alone

We were born to fight alone

We were born to fly alone

We were born to fight
