Sunless morning light
Slip down in my bed
Slip down out of sight
The air so heavy so heavy
Dampness on my cheek
Tatty ratty bird
Dismal preening beak
Morning afternoon
The futile hours pass
Foolish buzzing fly
In the spider's grasp
The sun so high so high
Shining in the pilot's eye
Tirelessly ablaze
Burning in icy space
I'm waiting right here for the wind
To blow my shutters away
Then maybe I can rise
With the sun in my eyes
The streets are shrouded in mist
A key in every door
Gaze out through my window
Longing for the storm
The sun so high so high
Shining in the pilot's eye
Tirelessly ablaze
Burning in icy space
I'm waiting right here for the wind
To blow my shutters away
Then maybe I can rise
With the sun in my eyes
City shrouuded in cloud Sunless morning light Slip down in my bed Slip down out of sight The air so heavy so heavy Dampness on my cheek Tatty ratty bird Dismal preening beak Morning afternoon The futile hours pass Foolish buzzing fly In the spider's grasp The sun so high so high Shining in the pilot's eye Tirelessly ablaze Burning in icy space I'm waiting right here for the wind To blow my shutters away Then maybe I can rise With the sun in my eyes The streets are shrouded in mist A key in every door Gaze out through my window Longing for the storm The sun so high so high Shining in the pilot's eye Tirelessly ablaze Burning in icy space I'm waiting right here for the wind To blow my shutters away Then maybe I can rise With the sun in my eyes Explain Request ×
