Winged Reflections: Bob Schneider's Melodic Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Am I a bird or am I a shoe
Am I questioning my identity or purpose, comparing myself to a bird or a shoe?
or am I something strange and new
Expressing uncertainty about being something unfamiliar or different.
alive and alone and blue like you
Feeling alive, yet isolated and melancholic, akin to the color blue.
Am I falling through the sky like a little lullaby
Wondering if I am metaphorically falling through life like a gentle lullaby.
far away and far too high
Feeling distant and too high, perhaps detached from reality.

point the truth like a gun

at everything and everyone you see

Its ok I know you're scared
Acknowledging fear but assuring that it's acceptable, possibly in the context of change or uncertainty.
you're supposed to be i swear
Reassuring someone that their fear is normal, urging them to join in a shared experience.
