Peregrine

This Spring I saw a Peregrine falcon Dive across a mountain range Curled in its wings, and spun then took off Moving faster than an airplane I was climbing a rocky path Making my way to the view And each mile I looked back to see That I wasn't any further from you This spring I wrestled with boulders and hemlocks to try to get high I came down with splinters and cuts on my shins There was a crow that was laughing nearby I was looking at anything And tryna see past its disguise But a conscious person should lock their eyes Before they curl their wings spin then fly I'll curl my wings and fly Away from you tonight I won't even say goodbye As I dive across the sky This spring I made a bridge out of stones I stole from the river bank And each stone was a step of its own I took moving away I was climbing a rocky path And making my way to the view And each mile I looked back to see That I wasn't getting further from you I'll curl my wings and fly Away from you tonight I won't even say goodbye As I dive across the sky Not even the fastest bird alive Could escape its own mind So should I even try To dive across the sky This spring I'm gonna curl my wings Spin around and take a dive
