robins

I would raise A family a dynasty I guess And regardless Of their mortality I would love them all I would raise Your eyes to me a tragedy I guess Unashamed ice shot of whiskey And I would drink them all Fractures of light Hold on to opacity charged by your sight Break open the world for me They told me you're leaving And I want you to go They told me you're leaving And your face let me know The days when you walked with me Now have gone still That your steps still speak to me I dream that they will I would raise robins Aviaries And bury the nests I guess And regardless of their mortality I would love them all I would eat the worms That curate the dirt Tunnels of despondency Unfold foundations for wings To fly, fly They told me you're leaving And I don't want you to go They told me you're leaving but I don't wanna know The days when you walked with me Now have gone still That your steps still speak to me I dream they always will You could raise My head higher than I've ever known But you've taken your time And I'm grateful for the love that you've shown
