I've been tryin' to find the right time
To tell you everythin' on my mind
But I'm still tryin' to find the right time
And I know you're goin' through hard things, so
I'm givin' everything to fix things
But I'm tryna figure where to draw the line

Sometimes you talk, got me thinkin' that you hate me
Still love you, but some days I'm kinda suffocating
I don't wanna see, I don't wanna see you down, but

How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying

I feel like I'm living for the days when
Think that I'm finally seein' changes
And there ain't nothin' more amazing

Sometimes I wonder, are we flyin' 'round in circles?
I'm in the sky, but you're bringin' me back down low
But I don't wanna come down
I wanna lift you back up

How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying

Should I stay or should I go?
How long is it gonna be this way? I just really wanna know
Am I afraid to let you know?
'Cause I don't wanna be the one that hurts you while you're hurtin' the most

How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying, no
When I'm tired of the trying
Oh, tell me
How am I supposed to carry
The weight of your love
When it gets this heavy?
I should be a bird
But I don't really feel like flying
'Cause my wings are hurt
Yeah, I'm tired of trying

Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
I should be a bird
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
I should be a bird
I should be a bird
