Birdsong

from Sleepless Swans by Elliot Vernon

/

lyrics

The bottom of this glass
Seems so far away
The endless glass down which i fall
Another day awaken
But sleep begins to take its hold
The light of dawn fading as i close my eyes

The aching numbness in my head pains me
The countless numbers of my pain numbs me
My faithful attitude towards my lethargy
Keeps me here in my cell of apathy

My life lived in reverse
I recognise this day
This day i lived so long ago
Another day forsaken
As sleep begans to cast its mold
The white of dawn fading as i make my ties

The birds begin to sing to me
And though they lull me to my sleep
I wonder if the birds would see
That all i wish is to rise from my abyss
