Flamingo in a flock of pigeons

[Verse 1]
You circle the square with your eyes on the ground
Counting the pale little pieces you found
I hold one balance while the whole world tilts
Pink feather bright where the gray dust drifts

[Pre-Chorus]
You say, “Blend in, it’s easier that way”
I lift my chin and let the color stay

[Chorus]
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
One leg steady, bright decision
You take the crumbs, I take the sky
I won’t fold my colors just to fit your line
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
I stand out—no permission

[Verse 2]
Your map makes circles around the same old square
I see a river in the open air
You call it strange when I turn my head
I find a whole new world where you see bread

[Pre-Chorus]
You say, “Tone it down, come walk our way”
I lift my chin and let the color stay

[Chorus]
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
One leg steady, bright decision
You take the crumbs, I take the sky
I won’t fold my colors just to fit your line
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
I stand out—no permission

[Bridge]
If I wobble, I recover
If I’m odd, I’m still another
Turn the circle, change the view
There’s more than one way through

[Final Chorus]
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
One leg steady, bright decision
You take the crumbs, I take the sky
I won’t fold my colors just to fit your line
Flamingo in a flock of pigeons
I stand out—no permission

[Outro]
Pink in the middle, steady and true
The world looks wider from this point of view
