Thunderbird
Flightless Thunderbirds: Craving Freedom and War Paint Addiction
Lyrics
We are the flightless thunderbirds firmly anchored to the ground
We, the flightless thunderbirds, are firmly grounded and unable to soar in the skies.
We know nothing of the skies, but by instinct we crave freedom from the Earths chaotic surface
Despite our lack of knowledge about the skies, our instinct compels us to yearn for freedom from the chaotic surface of the Earth.
We have no power here
We lack power in our current state.
We struggled as boys and girls
We, as boys and girls, have faced struggles in life.
We feel far too much
We experience intense emotions.
We have thunder in our blood
There is a strong sense of vitality or power within us (thunder in our blood).
Animkee fly!

We found our wings, but who hid them from us?

I’m sensible in my stride but I acknowledge my pride
