The chorus rings out!
From my vocal chords
tearing
And I'm just happy
Blissful
Whatever I can be.

I'm such an optimistic,
altruistic,
masochistic,
Bird.

Shrieking sea kings
With high tides
and there's no hope.

Hurricanes banishing
Us from our homes.

All I desired,
my flight.
All I received,
Cold, damp, bloody, motionless night.
