Bluejay - Head North

Was a bluejay on the porch of the house I would sleep in,

And she sang me songs so sweet.

Now I’ve grown and the bird has flown years ago,

So I stay awake and pray one day she’ll sing and mend my everything.

I said, «Please just come home cause I wanna feel whole again, now.

I’ll never say a word, I want you to stay who I found in my head.»

I gave her four walls for her to live in,

Just so that I could protect her from all that exists

And I could hear her as she was singing,

But everyday it grew softer til I heard her whisper,

«This is my only forever, and all I can taste is my life.

I was not meant to die here, when all that I dream is outside.»

I said, «Please just come home cause I wanna feel whole again, now.

I’ll never say a word, I want you to stay who I found in my head.»

I am a coward I know I should know that by now,

But I’m scared to let go,

Scared you kept me afloat and I’ll drown.

Codepend.

That bird has flown, I knew it would.

If you couldn’t have her then nobody would.

That bird has flown, as well it should.

If you couldn’t have her then nobody would.

«Please just come home cause I wanna feel whole again, now.

I’ll never say a word, I want you to stay who I found in my head.»

I am a coward I know I should know that by now,

But I’m scared to let go,

Scared you kept me afloat and I’ll drown
