Little bird sitting by the fire,
wings are burned, broken and tired.
But the warmth is all she needs,
and something cool to drink,
maybe a bite to eat,
oh, silhouette of thee.
Can anyone hear what I say?
Not that it matters anyway.
Lonesome shadow, achy feet
running back into eternity.
And finally I'm awake,
I've taken all I'll take
until my body breaks,
until my body breaks.
