Bird At Airport

At the airport terminal the planes are landing Traveling somewhere and it feels fantastic Rolling across the terminal floor And the sky's so high and the ground's so low And i think i'm dying but i'm just being born At the airport terminal the plains are landing Through the terminal we all shall go At the airport terminal i feel so unusual Everybody here is having an unusual day It's 10:24 in an unusual time zone And i'm feeling fine in an unusual way And we're going so high as i'm flying so low And i'm saying goodbye to the world i know At the airport terminal the planes are landing Thru the terminal we all can grow And it's time to let go But i'm lying down on the terminal floor And i'm running toward the terminal door And i'm eating porridge but i've Heated it for the wrong amount of time At the airport terminal i feel so imaginative Imagining where all the planes are going When i'm there i'll imagine where i came from Then i'll imagine my way back home But it's 8:45 and i'm on the next flight It's going around the world And we'll flight through the night 'til the day becomes bright Until the night returnes When will the night return? At the airport terminal the planes are landing One day soon we'll all be together Until then the terminal carries me through

Half empty, half full Cup runneth over Horns of plenty, coffers full We're starting over Half empty, half full Cup runneth over Horns of plenty, coffers full We're starting over I write you a story But it loses its thread And all of my witnesses Keep turning up, turning up dead I paint you a picture Of Pulaski at night Come back to Chicago City of, city of light Come back to Chicago I paint you a picture But it never looks right 'Cause I fill in the shadows And block out the, I block out the light I send you a postcard It says, "Pulaski at night" Greetings from Chicago City of, city of light Come back to Chicago City of, city of light Come back to Chicago

Covered in dust The wings of my porcelain dove They don't trouble the waters my love Frozen in time Fragile to touch She melts like the words on my tongue The goddess of heavenly love Fades outta sight All your stars are in view I get lost loving you Dark was the night Her shape burned a void in my eyes It was black but so violently bright Like the birth of a sun So I cried out But my voice could not be heard aloud For held here safe in my mouth The bird was done All your stars are in view I get lost loving you
