Journey of the Featherless Lyrics
Got myself a mission
I'm going to find heaven
I made crepe paper wings
I think they'll carry me a while
I left you a love poem
The best I have written
My favorite words
Were the ones I couldn't spell
They say that I'm a lunatic
They say that I am full of it
I say that it's worth dreaming
Just for the dream of it
It's all about passion
It's all about perception
Don't call me on my cell phone
'Cause there ain't no reception
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
I think I'm growing feathers
But I'm not quite sure of it
'Cause I started getting dizzy
About a Hundred feet up
I made friends with the clouds
I made friends with the birds
If you ask a goose a question
He never shuts up
And honestly I miss you
And I hope that you're missing me
Cause I could use your lips on me
And a little bit of Dramamine
For the moment I can see
Way better than I've ever seen
Don't sell my stuff on eBay
Cause I might need it back before I'm gone
Before I'm gone
I'm not the kind of man
Who's into looking downward
I've drank my share of pity
From the bartender's cup
So many people
Wondering "What's the right direction?"
As far as I'm concerned
There's only one way up
And my fingers, they are blisters
And my eyes, they are bullet holes
But my hearts still beating
Guess I'm pretty lucky
Pretty lucky
Pretty lucky
(When I'm gone)
Pretty lucky
(When I'm gone)
Pretty lucky
(When I'm gone)
Pretty lucky
(When I'm gone)
I'm going to find heaven
I made crepe paper wings
I think they'll carry me a while
The best I have written
My favorite words
Were the ones I couldn't spell
They say that I am full of it
I say that it's worth dreaming
Just for the dream of it
It's all about perception
Don't call me on my cell phone
'Cause there ain't no reception
When I'm gone
But I'm not quite sure of it
'Cause I started getting dizzy
About a Hundred feet up
I made friends with the birds
If you ask a goose a question
He never shuts up
And I hope that you're missing me
Cause I could use your lips on me
And a little bit of Dramamine
Way better than I've ever seen
Don't sell my stuff on eBay
Cause I might need it back before I'm gone
Who's into looking downward
I've drank my share of pity
From the bartender's cup
Wondering "What's the right direction?"
As far as I'm concerned
There's only one way up
And my eyes, they are bullet holes
But my hearts still beating
Guess I'm pretty lucky
Pretty lucky
(When I'm gone)
(When I'm gone)
(When I'm gone)
(When I'm gone)

I really love this song.
"And honestly I miss you And I hope that you're missing me Cause I could use your lips on me And a little bit of Dramamine"
Mmmmm--makes me melt. makes me think of her. sheesh
i agree with wahoolooze. it's so sweet, it's makes me squeal like a little girl.
I love this:
"And my fingers, they are blisters And my eyes, they are bullet holes But my hearts still beating Guess I'm pretty lucky."
If you just read the lyrics, it almost sounds sarcastic, but the way the band does this part of the song it makes you happy to be alive one "Guess I'm pretty lucky" blares out. Love It.
The sample beforehand basically explains the song. He's going to explore, he needs to find himself. But he'll be back before he's gone. He's done the whole pity thing, he's done the whole questioning thing; he just realized that we're all searching for something. At the end he finally realized that it's lucky to even be alive, and we should be thankful for that.
cant get enough!!
It's all about passion It's all about perception
this song fill my heart with love yet makes it ache.
