Blackbird why do you stay?
With wings so elegant,
You can sore high and mighty.
Leave us, breaking, delicate.
Why not use those wings to escape?

A world like a cookie,
Sweet and crumbling,
Short lasted and soon disappeared.
Yet you stay, fumbling,
Hoping to provide salvation.

Do you not realise your cause is lost?
No one cares for the extinct,
As soon, you’ll just be a bird in a shoebox.
It will be over soon, you blinked,
Now we have gone, all flown the nest.

You too can leave the wreckage,
Yet with your hope,
You will set out to make a change.
Be like the Pope,
Lead us to salvation.

Show us the promised land and together we will leave,
Fly Blackbird, fly, show us who to believe.
