Sparrow

If fire is not a friend to me
Then I might live in peace
I'd give away my wooden ears
Help you teach your throat and lips to speak
You have not stolen fear
But you can hardly sleep
The horns and shells you've gathered here
One day the one you battle might be me

Let your bird go lost
I will bring her back to you in spring
She won't change at all
Let your sparrow fall to what might be

And when you're done your howling
And done with everything
If she is gone for months again
Will you still say you watch for sparrow wings?
You have not stolen fear
But I can plainly see
The horns and shells you're holding here
One day the one you battle might be me

Let your bird go lost
I will bring her back to you in spring
She won't change at all
Let your sparrow fall to what might be

She won't change at all
Let your sparrow fall
She won't change at all
Let your sparrow fall
