Sparrows

Here's to the lonely ones
In a crowd but you never connect
Here's to the awkward kids
Cry at night yeah you're a wreck

You try so hard 
You practice good
But then it all comes crashing 
like you knew it would

We're angels falling to the earth in fire
We're sparrows with torn wings
We're brilliant, trapped with the face of a child
We're banished, dethroned kings
We're queens who cannot rule
Yeah our kingdom's in our reach 
but we cannot find the key
No we cannot find the key 

Here's to the misfit ones
Loyal with no friends 
Here's to the outcast ones
Who long to make amends

You try new things
You're branching out
But you trip and fall just before you fly 
And no one can hear your shout

We're angels falling to the earth in fire
We're sparrows with torn wings
We're brilliant, trapped with the face of a child
We're banished, dethroned kings
We're queens who cannot rule
Yeah our kingdom's in our reach 
but we cannot find the key
No we cannot find the key 

Here's to the ones who wanna be free
Of the chains that hold you back 
Here's to the kids trying their best
But you just can't learn the act

Don't give up now
I see the tear stains in your eyes
But you've come far I know you have
Don't let your courage die

We're angels falling to the earth in fire
We're sparrows with torn wings
We're brilliant, trapped with the face of a child
We're banished, dethroned kings
We're queens who cannot rule
Yeah our kingdom's in our reach 
but we cannot find the key
No we cannot find the key
