lyrics

Sometimes words escape from my mouth
Untamed birds flying through an open window
A flock of pigeons in hues of washed-out soot
And on occasion a solitary snowy crane
Or millions of annoying little songbirds
heralding the dawn
I once watched a murder of crows
Bring the night down with their cacophony
A noise that knows you far, far too well
and preys on the light

Or the red, red robin
alone on a telephone wire
With a song and dance of desperation
For no one in particular

A wise old barn owl who has no idea
What's he hooting about
The swallow-tailed kite, the lucky bluebird of spring
The thrush in the brush, the rush of restless wings
Sometimes words, they fly out of my mouth
Untamed birds flying through an open window
