“Not Like Birds”
Just like birds don’t get to pick their feathers
They flew north but to us this was perfect weather
We were both born crows, but we liked to sing
We couldn’t understand how much trouble that could bring
Outcasts, outlasting every degree
Every stereotype, the word on the street
We didn’t care about them, every word was unique
And we’d sing. We’d sing!
To the birds and the bees
The children climbing trees
The mom on her way to work
The dad who cant help but cheat
The rock star the rocket scientist
The people who would never know that we exist
you were so important to me
beautiful like a bluebird in the middle of spring
you remind me of the winter
but not cold and bitter
no you had that sweet, sweet way
of assuring everyone that things were gonna be okay
every thunderstorm, every lightning strike
was nothing compared to every starry night sky
with you i was assured everything would be alright
To the birds and the bees
The children climbing trees
The mom on her way to work
The dad who cant help but cheat
The rock star the rocket scientist
they all once had big dreams
just like us, just like us
just like us, but not like birds.
