Bird, untethered, the color of blue Weary and weathered, I sing this to you Are you alone in this harsh winter chill Am I forever to follow their will Will things get warmer if I close my eyes Or will they freeze over with winters soft lies Bird, untethered, the color of blue I once again find myself singing to you, Will we break free of our uncertainty Or will our wings shatter before we can leave Bird, untethered, the color of green you’re unlike anything we’ve ever seen Will this song reach you beyond these pale skies? Or will you escape from the grasp of my cries Bird, untethered, now where did you go? All that is left now is winter’s harsh snow Green feathers, nor blue, do I see in the sky Nothing but aching, an empty goodbye

Lullaby
Bird, untethered, the color of blue Weary and weathered, I sing this to you Are you alone in this harsh winter chill Am I forever to follow their will Will things get warmer if I close my eyes Or will they freeze over with winters soft lies Bird, untethered, the color of blue I once again find myself singing to you, Will we break free of our uncertainty Or will our wings shatter before we can leave Bird, untethered, the color of green you’re unlike anything we’ve ever seen Will this song reach you beyond these pale skies? Or will you escape from the grasp of my cries Bird, untethered, now where did you go? All that is left now is winter’s harsh snow Green feathers, nor blue, do I see in the sky Nothing but aching, an empty goodbye
