Bluebird

Up close, you can see me my smile
It's so far away, you can hear my footsteps on their own
Broken in the night, the sun dressed by a white veil
Marriage between good and bad will always prevail
I lay in fallow ground, turning it into all that I am
The wind shivered whimsical words, my ankles they broke

I shed my old self in my dreams
The land was my pain and you were the bluebird
I never rose until you called me your rose
All I could see was pale crimson dancing
By the heavy clouds where doubt pulls them down
A bluebird swooped down to me, it used my scars as hooks
I flew above the make believe pained dark mass inverted good
The land rippled into itself, it ate, attacked buried itself
As I soared with the bluebird to safer land

I shed my old self in my dreams
The land was my pain and you were the bluebird
I never rose until you called me your rose
Your rose, rose, my rose, rose, my savior

I shed my old self in my dreams
The land was my pain and you were the bluebird
I never rose until you called me your rose
Your rose, rose
