Unpack

Hidden in the shadow of the night
Dancing with the stars in geometric flight
I wondered what kind of bird you would be
I find myself in sea birds
Constant reminders of duplicity

Leisurely surviving as they watch the tilt of the Earth
If we could all be birds we'd be much more self assured

Comparable jump from the nest, I think it's the same for every bird

And if I'm lost you know exactly where to find me
Swallowed up in the green where the water meets the city

I'll be there to greet
I'll wait patiently
With all the other birds of the sea

Cuz I've never relied on my own wings
I search the horizon for something, for anything
That's how I learned to hear it speak
That's where I find everything

Where the dirt meets the river and the streams
Where the hills meet the sea
I'll be there to greet
I'll wait patiently
With all the other birds of the sea

Swallowed up in the green
Where the water meets the city
Where the dirt meets the rivers and the streams
Where the hills meet the sea

I'll be there to greet
I'll wait patiently
With all the other birds of the sea
