Bird Box Blues

Lyrics

[Verse]
Wingtip in the shutters, trapped in a dark plot,
Peckin' at the walls, hopin' to find a weak spot,
Feathers feel the tension, heavy on the clock,
A bird in a cage, no escape, gotta mock.

[Verse 2]
Street outside buzzin', hearin' all the chirps,
Different kinda language, callin' me a sir,
Beak up to the window, glimpse a world on high,
Freedom tastes salty, like a bird’s sigh.

[Chorus]
Trapped in the bird box, cryin' out my song,
Feathers dustin' shadows, been here too long,
Wanna feel the wind lift, gotta break free,
Dreamin' of the blue sky, just for me.

[Verse 3]
Sunrise through the slats, light draws a line,
Battle with the bars, a fight so fine,
Heartbeat like a drum, rhythm in my chest,
A warrior with wings, gotta pass this test.

[Verse 4]
Mirage of the open forest, branches beckon near,
Echo of my past life, drowns this fear,
Steel melts to my fire, intention starts to glow,
Beak’s a tiny hammer, break out, let's go.

[Chorus]
Trapped in the bird box, cryin' out my song,
Feathers dustin' shadows, been here too long,
Wanna feel the wind lift, gotta break free,
Dreamin' of the blue sky, just for me.
