lyrics

Golden Bird

The day unbinds the night
The crushed ideals and stilted schemes
I can push over to the side
I search to meet your eyes
To help unload this passenger
That’s been furled up way too tightly for this flight

With brute propulsion, not her wings
Read the script, refrain from singing
Don’t you go setting your sights
A slave by day released by night
A golden bird in overdrive
She now controls this flight
Travelling inside

As those around you close
Packing all their problems in
Shutting down and taking their toils home
I’ve been there so I know
But the golden bird she holds course steady
Steering me home

It’s not enough to wear these wings
She must fly above everything
She’s been calling to me for some time
I smashed her cage she came to life
A golden bird in overdrive
She know commands this flight
Travelling inside

You’d think by now I’d know
That reining in and pinioning her
Only leads to less control
If I should stake her chain
She’d fly in circles ever-decreasing
And never sing

A golden cage and golden rings
She tires of these earthbound things
They tether and they fetter and they lie
She says, I have this need to soar the skies
If you quench the flames the phoenix dies
So fan the flames that light the runway guides
Travelling inside
