Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not the place that  grew up in
It's not the body I was born with
They're not the trees that I once played in
That now surround us, us in a prison
[Verse 2]
Every bird was born with feathers
Every wing was shaped to fly
We spin around till we stop all motion
Let the heart move until the earth can touch the sky
[Verse 3]
In my hunger, deep in my bones
In a thousand deserted homes
Any time that you feel alone
I will find you where you are
Go where you are
[Verse 4]
In the garden behind the wall
Spinning coins and I watch them fall
Though I've lost all the wherewithal
I will find you where you are
Go where you are
[Verse 5]
I sing like the earth as you dance on my skin
The memories release the future
So this living can begin
Not in the ship that charts the heavens
Not in the words that fall like hail stones
Not in the light you disappear in
I'll be the mirror you can see through
[Verse 6]
Every bird was born with feathers
Every wing was shaped to fly
We spin around till we stop all motion
And let the heart move until the earth can touch the sky
[Verse 7]
In all the lines that churned your face
In a stretch that could open space
Any place that you leave a trace
I will find you where you are
Go where you are
[Verse 8]
In the city inside the wall
Where you watched all the embers fall
Though we've lost all the wherewithal
I will find you where you are
[Verse 9]
Go where you build this nest with lot of feathers
Build the world to bring back life
Build the place that holds the future
Can hold the future
For all who come when we are gone
When we are gone
