Three Little Birds - Bob Marley & The Wailers

Little Sara, you're a diamond in the rough And I know that you don't hear this all enough And I'm sure that's why your wrists have tons of cuts And I'm sure that's why you think you're not enough On your 19th birthday you thought that you were done Tons of people in your home, but it only felt like one Cause your brain can only think about the waiting loaded gun But your friends are all still here, so pretend you're having fun All your friends they wanna drink cause it's your birthday But you've been drinking straight probably since last Thursday Drinking is the only thing that makes you feel just okay It keeps the trigger finger off the trigger and at bay Your mind can only think about the things it shouldn't Your brain is filled with thoughts of wishing that ya didn't Little Sara, perk your ears up try to listen But she can't hear a sound because she's locked in a prison She can barely see the pavement She can barely read the signs People think she's complicated But never wanna look inside Cause she's a little too R-rated And they're a little too damn blind She's just looking for her angels But they're a little hard to find Little Sara, you've been skipping out on class And any minute now your friends are gonna ask Why the hell you're always acting sorta sad And why the hell your weed just never seems to last But the truth is you don't wanna let your secret out Cause they think it's wrong for you to take a different route All except your mom too bad that she's just not around And don't get me wrong those words you've tried to get them out But their views been skewed by their plastic news From their plasma tubes, so they won't fit in your shoes Except for Sunday blues, but you got Monday blues And you got Tuesday blues damn every day ya might lose All your friends they wanna smoke cause it's a Friday But you've been smoking straight probably since last Sunday I know you know you shouldn't say that you are okay But you still look em in the eye and lie then go to use your ashtray She can barely see the pavement She can barely read the signs People think she's complicated But never wanna look inside Cause she's a little too R-rated And they're a little too damn blind She's just looking for her angels But they're a little hard to find Little Sara, last night you got it bad In that moment you could barely even add up two or three reasons why you're glad And I guess that's why you grabbed your pen and pad It was 6:14 and you could barely even read All the words you'd written down of why it was time for you to leave Your phone was on the ground and you could barely hear it ring Couldn't even hear a sound, couldn't feel a single thing Now it's 6:15 and you're on your knees, blood is on your sleeves, and your lungs won't breathe Eyes are watering, body's shivering, and you're wondering what is happening Now it's 6:23, and they're on their knees, begging Jesus please, can you make her breathe Cause they finally see what was happening underneath their nose and underneath your sleeves She can barely see the pavement She can barely read the signs People think she's complicated But never wanna look inside Cause she's a little too R-rated And they're a little too damn blind She's just looking for her angels But they're a little hard to find

I can feel the energy The changes in my chemistry The atmosphere, the way I breathe My automatic action is To close my eyes and wander in And wait until the madness ends Lost communication with the world outside I fall into my own Into the abyss Lost inside my head I open up the door Step right off the ledge Into the abyss Nothing that I know I can't hear what you say Am I already dead? Into the abyss Looking through distorted eyes A mirror that I can't recognize No way out, no exit signs I try to make myself believe I'm only in a lucid dream It's like another world exists I wanna go back Into the abyss Lost inside my head I open up the door Step right off the ledge Into the abyss Nothing that I know I can't hear what you say Am I already dead? Into the abyss Lost communication with the world outside So much devastation in my world I hide I fall into my own Into the abyss Lost inside my head Cracks across the floor Step right off the ledge Into the abyss Nothing that I know I can't hear what you say Am I already dead? Into the abyss

All we are is broken glass Thrown to the floor, we were never meant to last And all we are are empty shells Try to pick us up, you're gonna cut yourself We march the streets at night Looking for a thrill, looking for a fight It was the first day of the rest of our lives We work fast, never gonna die Riding up the Highway 45 We didn't know it couldn't go on forever All we are is broken glass Thrown to the floor, we were never meant to last And all we are are empty shells Try to pick us up, you're gonna cut yourself We fought to rule the world Not knowing just how fragile we really were Like it was the first day of the rest of our lives Then the bricks began to fall And we can see the cracks along the wall We didn't know it couldn't go on forever All we are is broken glass Thrown to the floor, we were never meant to last And all we are are empty shells Try to pick us up, you're gonna cut yourself We believed that we could go on forever We believed that we could go on forever Forever All we are is broken glass Thrown to the floor, we were never meant to last And all we are are empty shells Try to pick us up, you're gonna cut yourself Cut yourself You're gonna cut yourself You're gonna cut yourself

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع
