Текст Clare Bowen — Aves’ Song

Hollow eyes and empty arms
A life lived on a shelf
Forgivin’ all the selfish ways
But she can’t forgive herself
A lonely bird left in a cage

With a place inside her mind
High above the pain she feels
High enough to find a ledge
To take away them tears
One step away from peace
She prayed to hit the ground
Turns out she had wings

Turns out she could fly
She held her breath, took that step
And opened up her eyes
She’d given up on her fragile heart
Hangin’ by a string
Gravity was not enough
Turns out she had wings

Touchin’ down, she looked around
And she didn’t recognize
The shards of glass and shattered past
She’d worked so hard to disguise
She saw herself, an empty shell
It all came back in flashes

She washed her hands, let go
And rose up from the ashes
Turns out she had wings
Turns out she could fly
She held her breath, took that step
And opened up her eyes
She’d given up on her fragile heart
Hangin’ by a string

Gravity was not enough
Turns out she had wings
Gravity was not enough
Turns out she had wings
Shadows grey below
Quiet in the light
Sweet chariots run low
In the velvet night

Little candle burnin’ bright
Turns out she had wings
Turns out she could fly
She held her breath, took that step
And opened up her eyes

She’d given up on her fragile heart
Hangin’ by a string
Gravity was not enough
Turns out she had wings
Gravity was not enough
Turns out she had wings
