Fly Away

Fly away little bird

Any place in this open mouthed world

Begs to be fed like a bed that beckons you but you won't rest

Everyone's got a need to go

Most of us stick with our row to h*e

But not you you're the black crow

With a straight line and no time

For the birds of prey who wreck your nest

Twice your size steal your best

They set you on this course of your collision

I am a stop along your way

I am the words you'll never say

I crossed the great beyond of fear

I opened my eyes and saw us there what a view

You went there too

Fly away little bird

Find the song in you that no one's heard

Strengthen your wings as you sing your solo flight

Through this short life

Everyone's got a deep regret

We try to ground ourselves to forget

But your race to the end is neck and neck

You love them you love them not

The birds of prey who wreck your nest

Twice your size steal your best

They set you on this course of your collision

I am a stop along your way

I am the words you'll never say

I crossed the great beyond of fear

Opened my eyes and saw us there what a view

And you went there too

But all along your chosen path are

Window panes and sheets of glass

That you won't see

You fly too fast

One day it will be over

Fly away little bird

The saddest song I ever heard

Was the one that I wrote you in my heart

That never made it to the world
