Birds Swim Fish Fly |
I turn one way and the wind blows me over, |
I turn another way and it’s holding me up, |
Luck has nothing to do with it, |
Things change when you learn to loosen your grip. |
I think one way and the future is desparate, |
I think another way everything is in sight, |
Trees bend so branches don’t have to break, |
We mend the wounds of our last mistake. |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Proud man begins to cry. |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Things change, so why can’t I? |
I live one way holding onto the fencepost, |
I live another way sliding off into space, |
Each life is loosely assembled, |
Inside the molecules tremble. |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Proud man begins to cry. |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Things change, so why can’t I? |
Little by little we die. |
Washed up on the beach of betrayal, |
How did the Mesonyx become a whale? |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Proud man begins to cry. |
Birds swim, fish do fly, |
Things change, so why can’t I? |
Things change, |
Fish fly. |
Little by little we try, |
Little by little we die. |
Why can’t I? |
Why can’t I? |
