Avril Lavigne - Birdie

"Birdie" Like a bird locked up in a cage called love He clipped her wings when she was born to fly He said, "A pretty bird, you can't sing But I'll buy you diamonds and ruby rings" Like a bird locked up in a cage And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? And oh, you can't hold me down, no Oh, you can't pull me down So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) So birdie fly away I'm tired of getting lost inside this maze all day Your twisted words are getting to my head I say, "And no more glasses and seein' stars And no more bruises and battle scars" Like a bird locked up in a cage And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? And oh, you can't hold me down, no Oh, you can't pull me down So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) So birdie, fly away (Higher, higher) So birdie, fly away I ain't your prisoner You can't lock me up no more I'll show you what I'm worth Take back what I deserve I ain't your prisoner You can't chain me down no more Goddamn, it's gonna hurt So fly away, little bird And how can I escape this place and go higher, higher? How can I avoid the flames from your fire, fire? And oh, you can't hold me down, no Oh, you can't pull me down So birdie, fly away (Oh, oh, oh) Can you hear me? (Oh, oh, oh) Are you listenin'? (Oh, oh, oh) Set me free, set me free (Oh, oh, oh) Can you hear me? (Oh, oh, oh) Are you listenin'? (Oh, oh, oh) Set me free, set me free
