[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] Songbirds perch upon a branch Shape-shift so they stand a chance When they gaze at me I see An unexpected empathy [Verse 2] It seems these cloaking birds relate To my blending in each day I sense this viewpoint can translate Unify and correlate [Chorus 1] I’ve mastered knowing how to be Just like what others ask of me And reworking into all shapes Leaves me to hunt for my own trace [Instrumental break] [Verse 3] Losing track of what’s inside While learning all the ways to hide Outside in the lifting wind Feathers carry them again [Verse 4] Heard breezes whispering today I feel there’s something to convey Words drifting ‘cross the roosting bough The message getting through somehow “Follow swift the gliding flight Fleetly before losing sight”… [Instrumental break] [Bridge] Ride upon the flow Set the echo free Trapped inside of me… [Chorus 2] I’ve mastered knowing how to be Just like what others ask of me And reworking into all shapes Leaves me to hunt for my own trace [Outro] Back again to take their shapes Songbirds touch down in the tree And they’re recognizing me… Contemplating what they see.
