about

Inspired by Perfect, by Rachel Joyce.

lyrics

Don’t remember much
Memories all blend into one
Like the way the sky holds
Darkness and sun
There’s a bird in ight
Its uttering like
Her nger tips, faltering, afraid to slip... Got to get it right...
And the sky is thick with all these things I don’t have the words
Hanging in the air like the birds
But heavy as though they were
Laden with the weight of the world
Little wings...
Heavy with the weight... Of the world
Like a child’s brow, full of worry Searching for his something lucky Wishing for his mothers safety
And I can’t turn back, time, has passed...
And they say its up to me to let it go I think like the yellow
Butterfly, watch it rise to the sky
