Black eyed birds are flying around
Feathers are flying,
They seem so happy

There in the trees,
Making so much sound,
They seem so happy

All the while in the crowded world
I hear a tune from a flute far away

A girl with silver hair calls to me
She says lets fly away...

Here in the now
In this bustling town
There are so many miseries
Such wondrous histories

Maybe, tomorrow it could be different, or no
I don't know...sure hope it would
I know it could

Black eyed birds are swimming in the ocean
So blue and mixed with their feathers all around

Her hair swiftly moves to the beat
Of a thousand pigeons who knew

That life is a pearl beneath the nest
Far out from the knowledge of the rest

So these black eyed birds never cry
Only a few ever give hefty sighs
And I know I could if I really tried
Someday I hope I can fly

Fly with the birds who seem to know it all
They've been around and know it all
From around the world,
To them its so small

Why can't I be like the birds?

So many angels up in the sky
Asking themselves
Asking why

Tomorrow hasn't come for its today
The same anyway,
Same as yesterday

The skyscrapers cover it all
The tears, the pleas, and the in-sanity
Of a life that just wasn't meant to be

Distant off the shores are the birds
Calling all of us
Together to march stately

On this golden beach
I started to cry
Wondering why I didn't see

So still I keep on back
To my cube in some forgotten room
On the edge of town

Edge of town...lost and found
By the birds with the shining eyes
They're all around
Making sounds, calling us together

So still I'm back on track
I'm out of here
No more tears...

The flute still calls me to her
The girl with the hair
Over there, petting the birds

With the shining eyes
Never why can't I be free

Ooo, the organ plays
Plays for me today
I give away a sigh
Apart of me has died

And all that I've known
Everything shown
To all those that need
Don't you see?

To hear is a thing
That isn't taught
To all those that know
It was brought

You must decide
Of all these things
Divide and separate
Hear them sing

The angles are bright
They know how it goes
They know it all
Like the birds on the shore

Be with me now
Be with me good
Don't make a sound
Ask if you should

Hear those instruments
All over
Hear them play
Hear them feel

See that I'm right
See that I'm dead
All you know
In lead

Congregated
Forever more
Fell the pain
Feel the sores

The birds are all flying
Flying away
Never tomorrow
Just today

Call on me whenever
You're feeling down
I'll be over
Right now

Keep your hands
On mine
Watch as
We drift away from time

Seas of glory
Seas of gold
Seas of stories
Never told

The birds are calling
Lets answer
The birds are flying
Away from the cancer

Keep on the path
Keep in the halls
Keep on the grass
Don't do what your told

See that I was right
Forever here
Dry your eyes
Wipe away the tears

The organ has stopped
And so have I
Give away
The forever night

Here we are
At the island
Of hopes and dreams
Engraved in sand

This is to us
To all those that came
We are now
We are the same

Tell me your love
Tell me its me
Tell me the pain
And how you feel

Tell me my love
Plant this seed
Of love
For you and me

I'll keep you warm
When its winter
Keep you in my arms
Forever

Seal away
All these fears
I'm here
Always near

They are all gone
They are all done
The elites
Under the sun

We are they
As they are we
Together we create
Harmony

Co-existing
Can't you feel?
Your veins
With theres?

Dash it out
De-frag your mind
Forget about
Time

Eternity or not
Sound asleep
We must awake
To eat

Forget about hell
Its nothing new
We created
Un-like the moon

Which dazzles in the sky
Up above
To show that
Its the greatest love

More than man
More than me
You are
My eternity

My point across
In the stars
Take it slow
We'll go far

Now its time to shoot for the heavens
Never looking back
At these devils

Come with me and we'll never return
To the highest dreams
I'm sure

Here you are
I place this ring
Hear them angels
Hear them sing

They sing for our marriage that will last
If we work
We can complete the task

Here we go with those happy birds
Listening to that final word

Judgment or not
Here we come
To the promise land
Up above

Eclipse of the sun
Has ridden all of us

But two still remain
Two are still saved

That is me
And that is you
Our love will guide us
Through and through
