Alkaline Trio - Broken Wing Lyrics
It ain't hard to get lost
When you forget where you come from
Turn that dial to the right
Push that pedal down
Don't say goodbye
Along for the ride
It would be real nice just to fly away
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy
It might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe
It's hell you say
How many more days am I gonna wake up
When there's no place I wanna go?
If that sunshine's really gonna kill us all
Why is everyday so cold?
Why is everything so fucking cold?
And never melts away
It would be real nice just to fly a way
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy
It might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe
That's the top of your lungs
And the bottom of your heart
Is that the top of your lungs?
Is that the bottom of your heart?
Is that as deep as your heart goes?
I understand the things that keep you up
And I know that you still feel
And I know your heart is hemorrhaging
And needs some time to heal
And now the traffic lights there on your street
Flash yellow all the time
And that mirror in your bathroom
It looks cracked in the wrong light
But walk out through your threshold
Fill your lungs up and move on down the stairs
And let the things you love come back to you
In time we'll all get there
It would be real nice just to fly a way
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy
It might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe

Beautiful 😍
🤘🤘🤘
Favorite Alkaline trio song.
It ain't hard to get lost
When you forget
Where you come from
Turn that dial to the right
Push that pedal down
Don't say goodbye
Just for a drive
Along for the ride
It'd be real nice just to fly away
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe
It's hell you say and it gets worse you know
How many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no place I wanna go?
If that sunshine's really gonna kill us all why is every day so cold?
Why is everything so fucking cold?
It never melts away
It'd be real nice just to fly away
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe
That's the top of your lungs and the bottom of your heart
It's at the top of your lungs
It's at the bottom of your heart
It all as deep as your heart goes
I understand the things that keep you up
And I know that you still feel
And I know your heart is hemorrhaging
You need some time to heal
And now the traffic lights there on your street
Flash yellow all the time
And the mirror in the bathroom
It looks cracked in the wrong light
But walk out through your threshold
Through your lungs and move on down the stairs
And let the things you love come back to you
In time we'll all get there
It'd be real nice just to fly away
And escape everything
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
But it sure won't make me believe
Fly away, escape everything, but little bird looks like you got a broken wing.
how many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no place i wanna go?
How this is only a B side, I will never know. It is a catchy tune, with a good lyrical message. The song selection for some albums I found strange with Trio, but nevertheless, they are still my favourite band by an absolute mile.
. . b b

one of Dans best songs.
Dan and Matt have both stated that just because a song didn't make the official album doesn't mean it was because it was lacking quality. They won't throw a song on the album unless it matches with the theme. This is a truly beautiful song.
I guess this is about Matt, I love how close him and Dan are.
Shit, I never thought of that...
I'm obsessed with song at the mo, can't stop playing it and singing along!
Comparing each member of the Trio to one another (especially Matt and Dan) will only tear them apart! Stop the madness! Let them be! Match made in hell, if you ask me! ;)
i agree! Dan has a fucking amazing voice and a lyrical genius.. " all of my favorite singers have stolen all of my best lines." haha so good. and when i saw trio he was the only one that stayed behind and shook my hand and talked to me. skiba and derek pretty much bolted haha. not that i blame them they were probably tired but Dan's an amazing dude.
Best new song and not even on the album..what a shame! :D
I love Dan's stuff. His stuff on the last 3 albums or so have outshined Matt's in my opinion, but Matt's early stuff will never ever be beaten.
I used to like Matt's songs better than Dan's but i'm finding that in the last few albums i like Dan's songs more and i really enjoyed Hurricane Season too. I really like how Dan's vocals have improved over the years when you compare a song like Hollow Sounds to a song like She Took Him To The Lake. I still like Matt's stuff a lot but i find sometimes he gets a bit too artsy for my taste.
Absolutely, I enjoy his song lyrics quite a bit better as well.
Matt's songs can have some cringe-worthy lyrics
wow, this might be my favorite so far. like kick rocks from this addiction or burned in the house from agony and irony.
This and Pocket Knife are easily my favorite songs from the new release. Hope to see them play them live.
I've been asking Dan about that. Taking a new tact and now just attacking Skiba on twitter about it. Obviously his doing or the producer's. And since it seems to happen with every producer... that leaves Matt.
how come dan songs are always B-sides? they are always some of the best on the records.
what a beautiful song ;)
lol. :) It's from bonus 'Broken Wing' EP
yes! new recording
Is this real?
