Lyrics
I'm like a bird with broken wings
And you're teaching me to fly again
This cast is fitted so tightly
But it will be worth it in the end
I'm like an urn that's made of porcelain
Filled with vices I confide in and
You've always been the hammer used to break these things
When I watch the ocean split
I'll look back with a subtle grin
And know that I can count on you to help me save face
When you grow up and you inevitably spread your wings
Make that drop and have your own songs to sing
I hope that you reflect on me
Positively
You're the best god damn bird that the Earth could have given me
And I'll work my hardest to ensure you're taken care of graciously
Snap me back
Retrace, relapse
Until the lines overlap
Instill these dreams
Through shallow streams
Of whittled love and faded memories
When I speak of precious life through death
And nights of simple stress
You're a constant gleam
Like diamonds on a wedding ring
A thief, a thief, of negative energy
When you grow up and you inevitably spread your wings
Make that drop and have your own songs to sing
I hope that you reflect on me
Positively
And I want you to know
That I'll do anything I can to protect you
You're the most precious stone that's washed ashore this beach
And the only one I've ever felt power through
