lyrics

the world rages on
as i’m crying on the side of the road
the streetlights sing along
our bodies carry warmly through the cold

oh i cannot be taken care of
my burdens are mine and mine alone

asleep in the car
the stilly dust mocks my broken breath
my body plays its part
while the owl holds the stillness in his head

oh it cannot be left for nothing
i’m tired and i’m settled for myself
his wings cut the noise with careful silence
anemic for the night his feathers swell

oh i cannot be meant for nothing
tried and true- to set a heart in stone
the owl’s song destroys the fragile silence
his life is lived and shuffled off alone
