Lyrics Cardinal - Former Hero

A cardinal fell from the sky
So far from home
So alone
Sometimes I dream in black and white
I don't know why
I guess I'm numb
But I'm not gonna let it show
Anymore
I think it's time I divide and divide
Until one of me is ecstatic to be alive
And I hope I'll grow
'Til I'm tall enough
To see all through myself and my faults
But until then
I'm just a cardinal

I'm just a cardinal

But I'm not gonna let it show
But I'm not gonna let it show
But I'm not gonna let it show

So take my wretched head
Turn it into a satellite
Bury wings so deep
I have no choice but to take flight

Tell the ground I said goodbye
And I miss the soil beneath my skin
But I'm gonna get so high
I watch the earth as it
I watch the earth as it
Spins

I'm just a cardinal

I watch the earth as it
I watch the earth as it
I watch the earth as it
I watch the earth as it
Spins
