Baby Bird / Effigy

(album: Dark Horses - 2015)

Baby bird
Nestled in mothers womb
Dawn is awaiting you
You can fly if you choose

On the cusp of what you've been waiting for
Spread your wings now and show them what you're worth
Truth, be told is they love you just the way you are.

Broken lung
Where did you go so wrong?
Did you some how lose sight of what's real?

Leave your mew now and dream of better days
Don't forget to enjoy the noise you make
Truth, be told is they love you just the way you are.

I will be right here with my broken lung.
Waiting to die here with my broken lung.
I will be right here with my broken lung.
Waiting to die here without you.

On the cusp of what you've been waiting for
Spread your wings now and show them what you're worth
Truth, be told is I love you just the way you are.

I will be right here with my broken lung.
Waiting to die here with my broken lung.
I will be right here with my broken lung.
Waiting to die here without you.

Though the dawn isn't too far away, this ain't over until I have said.
I don't want you to end up in chains, my baby bird.

“There's no rest in this fucked up machine.
But I'm doing the best that I can.”

So courageously
I keep chasing my moment in the sun
And this is what I get

So, courageously
I'll keep chasing that moment in the sun
And you can't hold me back
