Once When We Where Birds
Rediscovering Freedom: Once We Soared as Birds
Lyrics
We were kings
We experienced a time of greatness and power.
And we had so much time
We had ample time available to us.
When we had wings
We possessed the ability to soar and be free.
In the company of giants
We were in the presence of extraordinary and influential beings.
We were friends
We had strong bonds and connections.
We were pirates
We lived adventurous and rebellious lives.
in a foreign land
We existed in an unfamiliar and possibly challenging environment.
We had planets in our heads
We had imaginative and expansive thoughts.
Every stone was still unturned
There were still many opportunities and possibilities.
And I do remember
Recollection of a specific moment in the past.
Once when we were birds
Reflecting on a time when we were carefree and unrestrained.
I wonder how
Expressing curiosity about the way things were.
We could be so free
Contemplating the sense of freedom we once had.
I wished that now
Expressing a desire to return to that liberated state.
I still could make believe
Wishing for the ability to believe in possibilities again.
Stuck in a square until you break
Feeling confined in a routine until it is broken.
That's how you slowly start to fade
Describing a gradual fading or loss of vitality.
In a world that didn't hurt
Recalling a time when the world seemed less painful.
Yeah I still remember
Confirming the memory of a period when life was less challenging.
Once when we were birds
Reflecting on a time when we were free like birds.
Can We fly like that again?
Pondering the possibility of regaining a sense of freedom.
I wanna fly like that again
Expressing a strong desire to experience that freedom again.
Can we fly like that again?
Questioning whether a return to that liberated state is achievable.
I wanna learn like
Expressing a wish to learn and grow like in the past.
Once when we were birds
Reiterating the nostalgic memory of when we were carefree like birds.
