Out Lies A Bird

Out Lies a Bird


I look out the window,
Out on the power lines lies a bird.

Everyday it goes to the same spot.
Waiting...
Waiting for a friend.

There alone it waits...
There alone unnoticed...
There alone it wishes to fly away.

Away into the unknown world,
Away being carried by a nameless wind,
Away into the vast frontier.

I look out the window,
Out on the power lines lies a bird.
And then I soon realize...
That bird is me.

Everyday I go to the same spot,
By the window.
Waiting...
Waiting for a friend.

There has to be more than this.

As I try not to think like the bird,
The world will continue to spin...
With or without me.

I am drowning in a void...
I am drowning in a void without your affection.

The truth is I am the bird,
I am the bird...

As it flies away, it realizes the beauty of life.
And so do I...

I am sorry.
As I wish none of this was true,
I must fly into a new frontier...
With...
Or without you...


Out flies a bird
