U2 - Kite - live from sydney / 2006 lyrics

Something is about to give I can feel it coming I think I know what it is I'm not afraid to die I'm not afraid to live And when I'm flat on my back I hope to feel like I did And hardness, it sets in You need some protection The thinner the skin I want you to know That you don't need me anymore I want you to know You don't need anyone Or anything at all Who's to say where the wind will take you? Who's to say what it is will break you? I don't know, which way the wind will blow Who's to know when the time has come around? Don't want to see you cry I know that this is not goodbye It's summer, I can taste the salt of the sea There's a kite blowing outta control on the breeze I wonder what's gonna happen to you You wonder what has happened to me I'm a man, I'm not a child A man who sees The shadow behind your eyes Who's to say where the wind will take you? Who's to say what it is will break you? I don't know, where the wind will blow Who's to know when the time has come around? I don't want to see you cry I know that this is not goodbye Did I waste it? Not so much I couldn't taste it Life should be fragrant Rooftop to the basement The vast of the rock stars When hip hop drove the big cars In the time when new media Was the big idea That was the big idea
