birdsong

I long for the mountains but I think you know that by now

So instead I stay up mourning so that by the time it's mornin' it feels like I'm floating on clouds

Spend my days exhausted, to avoid the thoughts I get lost in, pleading I'll be smarter another day, eh

Prancing around in the opalescent atmosphere

I can hear melodies of bird song in my ear, I hear, I heal

I most recall your whispers in the sheer silence of the breaking dawn

Not for long, maybe I'm wrong

Can I escape from it all?

I long for mountains but the choice I choose is solitude 'round town

I pretend I am a ghost on the bus amongst all those, alive and wishing in a better way

Embrace the art of thinking about how I should be living but crippling at the sight of all this change

Dance with me now in the incandescent atmosphere

I can feel melodies of moon song in my ear, I feel, I heal

I won't recall your whispers in the sheer fire of your fallen heart

For how long, I'll burn apart

I can escape from it all
