Blackbird Lyrics by Ellis Delaney

Break the Spell

2008

I've been caught in this way of thinking
What I need is a change in the air I've been breathing
Drove a hundred miles an hour
Down the mountainside
Felt like a superhuman
Felt like I could fly
I had a plane to catch
I had my seatbelt on
But it wouldn't have kept me safe if I'd fallen off
I've got rolls of tape
Stuck up in my head
Got the wrong words mixed up in the things I said
But I'm meant the kindness
And I meant holding you
We can be the ocean so much bigger than this view
I've been caught in this way of thinking
What I need is a change in the air I'vе been breathing
Even waves havе their sights set on heaven, fallin' down
They will pray long after the sun's beneath them
I am my own blackbird
I can't see at night
And I've got tunnel vision when I'm in broad daylight
I am on a hilltop
And I am rollin' down
Sooner or later I will arrive on solid ground
I've been caught in this way of thinking
What I need is a change in the air I've been breathing
Am I lost or is this just part of healin'
Can I trust every breath will be there
