I cry a tear for the poor soul
the little girl with no home
she holds her head high
cuz everything's alright
where's she gonna sleep tonight?
where's she gonna eat tonight?
she quakes and she quivers but she never cries
cuz everything is alright
she hides behind her eyelids and ducks down low
she'll get through this, thats all she knows
god damn it's better than going home
the little run away with the face of an angel and the mouth of a crow
so many know and love her
still they let her go
flap your wings little birdie, you know you can fly
no mother was there to push you from the nest, none there to catch your first fall
you had to jump blindly through it all
your soaring your soaring the wind at your feet
till the rain driops hit your eyes and you fall from the sky
this is all so crazy
you just need a little time to breath.
then the birdie met the catapillar and the breathing was done
who needs to breathe when you can have fun?
so they sipped the nectar and consumed the leaves
and little birdie forgot to greive'
untill it was time to leave
inhaled to a world she was not ready for, exhaled from a world not ready for her
she picked the worms from the snakes
and she ate when she could and she tried not to hate
just thinking one day that this will be great
she'll make it through, everything's gonna be great
