Owl City - Bird With A Broken Wing Lyrics

I won't be missed. In this cruel world. Closest to dieing and god won't save me to keep me alive..

."..the anthem of a bird with a broken wing..."...Love has to undergo suffering's too..

My theme song

Adam we all *know* what your last verse means.

*Stop.*

*You are definitely loved.* Though you haven't met nearly all who do. You will be missed by every one of your fans, not to mention friends and family.
Your brain is literally fighting against who you are as a person. Please talk to someone. Even if it's a random stranger on social media.
We can't lose you becuase your music has touched all of our hearts.

Every story does end, but this isn't how *yours* ends.

1:04 This line is so good I'm crying.

This is like custom made for Remus Lupin.

HP reference, I like it

😻😻😻

The last line of lyrics would fit perfectly for my suicide note... But, I can't put that in 'cause Owl City(or Adam) will probably get in trouble or something...

Bruh don't dis a good song

"so misunderstood, till the bloody end. How I wish I could do it all again"

I love this song so much.
Also, pre-Accepting-Anxiety Virgil, anyone?

Here I am again listening to this song to get cheered up after some depressing thoughts

The anthem of the bird with broken wing.. Just love it..

"Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time" This almost made me cry and I don't know w h y

I really like this song. When I first heard this song, my crazy brain made me heard 'the anteloper with a broken wing.' - hard a hard time trying to figure out what that meant exactly and then.. Oh!

No politics on owl city turf please. It's a safe space

This song defines perfectly what I'm going through now

That's kinda a bad thing, but same here

I love this song but I can't help to mention how if you listen closely it kinda sounds like a creeper taking damage in the background lol

lol Minecraft nerd! Glad you still remember the GOAT of all games

I found this in a book an qoutev and the author said that it reminded them of Error sans and I have to agree.

"To see the sun again, I'd do anything."

At the ocean floor? Antarctica, maybe?
Ok.
Broken wings, or not. Hugin, and Munim.

*feel* fifth grade me’s edge

Owl city is so inspiring I love every song 😀

I don't know why but tears are spilling from my eyes...

I looove Owl City so much ❤❤❤ive liked owl city since my early childhood!!! This song is awesome <33 *i love it*

Who thinks this would be Jack's theme song in The Titanic

Jason Todd?

Let us pray for those fragile lives

I like this I know i can't be won all that brings is atrophe..why if I had any less than I could live partime.
I'd be the waist of this place. Wanna taste...No points 4 superman...he wears supper with diner at the dinner..if I ate it then I will eat it chewbacca, its~inue I only feed a foot per feet..then its poof poof off with food, now all u noe, no, & know is the dog chasing a stick dumb dumb is a sucker that soccer... now that dance went dense weave got dental dams as fishing rentals sea the thyme reel its rhyme, match the catch and clothes the latch and lift the face that last came first. Taken and Given the thankin and thoughts watches rott thirst beings sought bought the lot and winds the mind fools that chime say what's mind dumping hands breathing sand, a vacancy occupied. beefed is stalking, and pooped with poppin and walks when it sits while spots are cides, flops flip slips sleep slapping at the change when life starts with mainge. tic tac get your taekats ...your in all, cakes only maide swept the flooroom to shower the manure its pastureized nature..

As one who has lost wife daughter and others, I actually find this song an anthem for those who have lost much, to go on and finish. And finish well.
Found this looking for a different song. Love it.

As someone who lost some of the closest people in my life, I agree entirely with you my friend. I am sorry for your loss, thank you for sharing your thoughts on here--an echo of my own. May you find some peace and happiness, god bless.

Yay, bonding moment! Anyone notice how owl city song comments aren't a song toxic as other videos?!

So I walk alone down the darkest roads
'Cause I've always known how the story goes
When the curtain falls I'll be wearing thin
Clawing at the walls as they're closing in
In this twisted plot I was destined for
I'm an astronaut on the ocean floor
So misunderstood 'till the bloody end
How I wish I could do it all again
It feels like I'm a lone survivor
Forgotten in a dark and deadly world
And on my own I walk alone
To see the sun again I'd give anything
But life demands a final chapter
A story that we all must leave behind
It's do or die, and this is mine
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
It's another night of the living dead
Like a viper bite in a spiderweb
It's so deathly dark in the alleyway
And a bleeding heart makes you easy prey
I would run and hide for the afternoon
With the butterfly in the panic room
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time
For a different twist in the story line
It feels like I'm a lone survivor
Forgotten in a dark and deadly world
And on my own I walk alone
To see the sun again I'd give anything
But life demands a final chapter
A story that we all must leave behind
It's do or die, and this is mine
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
It feels like I'm a lone survivor
Forgotten in a dark and deadly world
And on my own I walk alone
To see the sun again I'd give anything
But life demands a final chapter
A story that we all must leave behind
It's do or die, and this is mine
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
The anthem of a bird with a broken wing
Tell the world I know that my mind is made
It's a hard show, but I'm not afraid
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time
For a different twist in the story line

First time I heard owl city was take to the sky in legend of the guardians and that was one of my favorite movies with great story and amazing graphics

Fame and fortune? Possibly it bleaches and damages in the creation of love and hidden dreams that are forbidden? He is a moody man; renown and everything does not give you back everything? I send him a smile and a Star.

This song suites with how unwell I'm feeling. 💘💔🐦

always thought this wasn't a good owl city song, but then I listened to it and I realized that no owl city song is bad

That was year he was disbanded he still had his group but i think he thought of this song as one of his last ways to leave a final mark in music history

I relate to this song so much

"Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time, for a different twist, in the story line." No one is going to miss me, but I'm gonna make my own path.

This song would fit perfectly with the anime the rise of the shield hero

Adam, you are my butterfly in panic room

Haven't heard this yet. Already liked it. I'm mean, it's Owl City....

{Edit}
I listened to it....I'm crying on the inside because this is exactly how I feel.....now just crying.....

I used to listen to this song when I was 8 years old. I never understood the meaning back then but I cried to it

Its like adam was trying to tell his carreer :'c

*Scorpio vibes*

That editing! Just, wow.

I can relate to this song so much. Damn, it's too real.

Gotta love this song ❤❤❤

Still listening 2019 so awesome!
Like if u agree!

Anyone still listening in 2019?

i'm an astronaut...on the ocean floor!
anyone else here in 2019? this song will never stop being my jam

2019? Anyone🖤

love this song

It feels like I'm a lone drag racer
In a slow and crowded road
on my own
i drive alone

"Tell the world I know, that my mind is made
It's a horror show, but I'm not afraid.
Though I won't be missed, I would say it's time
For a different twist in the storyline." <3

This is my life.

THIS IS SO GOOD

DANG THIS IS GREAT

You know those posts you see that say things like 'everyone has a song that represents who they are at a certain time in their life'? This is my song right now.

This song inspires me so much especially since I’ve been so sad lately

Whoever disliked this is a monster. I luv Adam!

is this more depressing than usual or is it just me?

I think it's more grown up

Listening in 2018 because it's my favourite actually mobile orchestra is one of his better albums

Best song in this album. Awsome!!

I would miss you Adam!

Provided he's not in a trench, an astronaut would probably be okay on the ocean floor.

I suppose he would. Like, he has oxygen and such...just no space food....I've been told it's gross

gosh, one of my fave songs =)

Bring back to many memories. Great song

Dang he slays

I like listening to this when my siblings annoy me and I want to kill them.

Makes me think of httyd and sky landers academy for some reason.

This song tune is very rocking so I liked it and it's meaning is also very good

With a butterfly in a panic room, that line just, wow

Really nice and inspiring song.
(Also, some parts of it kinda reminds me of Severus Snape.)

The most underrated song in the universe.....

I'm crying

adam young, with the butterfly, in the panic room

I asked my mom what she thought this song meant. She thought it was a dark song. I think it means hope. Never give up.

Broken wings can heal

Made an animated music video for this song:) check it out on my channel:)

Does anyone else think of Virgil when they hear this?

No?

Just me?

Ok.





I bet nobody even knows who "Virgil" is lmfao

Dolla Bills are you talking about Virgil from Arcanum?

Virgil Sanders? Because if so definitely

*when you can relate on a spiritual level* ;-;

This song was all I played in the summer of 2016. Re-listening to it now I just get happy memories.

Sometimes this song makes me cry before the first chorus. Usually after it, though. Go s h I love this.

This is the anthem of one of the characters in the story I’m writing 🙂

Yay! Awesome song

This makes me imagine Nico in Tartarus. It fits well.

Love this song

2018 anyone?

2019 now

Nostaliga!

I love his music! My fav kind of music<3<3 thx adam for curing my depressions<3

500th comment yay

Personally this song means a lot to me. To me the song represents someone who is very misunderstood and afraid of letting their inside show. Someone who is constantly enraged and screams at the people they love. It’s how I’ve felt for a long time and I feel like it’s getting worse. The music that I listen to is the only way I’m really happy. So big thanks to Imagine Dragons, Coldplay, some Minecraft parodies, Avicii, And, of course, owl city

You just described my life

Love It 👍

Tell the world I know, that my mind is made. It's a horror show but I am not afraid.

'"The anthem of a bird with a broken wing" niceeeeeeeeeeeee😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

How can something be so good? The last line, I have been looping on it indefinitely!

Forgotten in a dark and deadly world😘😘😘owl city r jay

hi mu real name is asher and i am 11 years old and my dream since i was about 6 was to meet adam young all of his songs are a work of art eh seems like he is always happy i wish i was always happy and i have the same haircut as him i try to talk like him i have all of his song i have almost memorized all of his song's and i just wish someone would make my dream come true ( :

THEORY: The bird that broke it's wing is an owl representing Adam because it's his band (owl city) , which is why it's sang in 1rst person.

god that is depressing

707's song

Owl City's songs are so great, yet their stange somehow. When you hear one its hard not to love it, and they all feel so familiar, though not copies of each other. the same but different. Nostalgia hits hard even if you've just been introduced to the specific one you're hearing. Am I the only one who thinks this?

In the words of Adam Young *"YOU'RE NOT ALOOOONE OOO"*

Kya bgn ka gana likha lol song
