One Small Bird歌词

One Small Bird - Matt Duke
There's a small girl with her backpack
Filled with textbooks out of date
Sings a new song every block
And gets to school about ten of eight
For each hopscotch on the school lot
There's a wall that's tagged with names
And heavy bars conceal the windows
Etched remarks detail the frames
One small bird flew away from this earth
Wings pushing so high
But looking down on that once fragile ground
She's happy to be in the sky
O' How the sunlight burns the pavement
As the sweat forms on her brow
There's some shade beneath the building
And the hydrant's open now
And as they line up from their recess
Cracking sounds disrupt the sky
And tiny holes as big as pennies
Mark the walls as children cry
And one small bird flew away from this earth
Wings pushing so high
But looking down on that once fragile ground
She's happy to be in the sky编辑于2021/05/16更新
