A Bird Is A Song Lyrics

Colorado, can you hear me?

Are you listening, are you even there?

Colorado, are you listening?

Do you hear me, do you even care?



The concrete canopy, mountains of symmetry

The city policy, the city air

The burroughs I've seen seem so unfair

Still the feathers on the sidewalks I find there



I do not need to speak, but I wanna listen

To the tiniest of flights in their transmissions

The words tied to their wings

Well, they're the words I'm gonna sing

The noise, small and strong and a bird is a song



Torch the sails and set fire to our deals

My heaven is here, my heaven is here

Who would need escape, who would seek salvation

From a place so bright and clear?



I do not need to see but I need a vision

A once seamless operation upon ignition

The fuel that I sought away

Will keep us through the darkest of days

Will keep us well through winter's long

And when springtime starts to broadcast birds are our song



Keep your feathers clean and dry

Keep your feathers clean and dry
