Broken Bird (Music For a New Society)
Like a broken winged, like a broken bird
She senses every damn thing that's near her
And nothing in the light of day
Could see how her happiness faded away
How her happiness faded away with the night
Away with the dawn as the sea caring gun
The fish and the heron, walking stiffly
The stalker of oblivion
Keep me alive in these stars at night
And they shine on you either way
The broken wing on the bird
A broken wing he did not have to break
Only reading, reading the long signs
And thinking, hell, where his arm is, just saying
Could it be I'm just saying the safe thing again?
And Ladies, and Gentlemen, can't reread on the help
Lend me, lend me your fires, 'cause, I'm broken winged
Could be anything, anything
Any day, any time or year or month
Satisfied, are you satisfied?
Now that you're satisfied
Done it again
She senses every damn thing that's near her
And nothing in the light of day
Could see how her happiness faded away
How her happiness faded away with the night
Away with the dawn as the sea caring gun
The fish and the heron, walking stiffly
The stalker of oblivion
Keep me alive in these stars at night
And they shine on you either way
The broken wing on the bird
A broken wing he did not have to break
Only reading, reading the long signs
And thinking, hell, where his arm is, just saying
Could it be I'm just saying the safe thing again?
And Ladies, and Gentlemen, can't reread on the help
Lend me, lend me your fires, 'cause, I'm broken winged
Could be anything, anything
Any day, any time or year or month
Satisfied, are you satisfied?
Now that you're satisfied
Done it again
