little bird - the keening lyrics

Loading...

there was a bird
a little bird in a golden cage
it did not weep
it did not so much as raise its head
and when the morning sun rose
to chase away the gloom
it stood unmoving on its perch
as if carved from stone

the only sin that counts
is when you betray yourself
when you rip off your own wing
to pacify the pestilence

remember
a bloodthirsty wolf
is never satisfied
a bloodthirsty wolf
is never satisfied

there was a bird
a little bird in a golden cage
and strange enough
the golden cagе grew smaller day by day
they fеd it figs and nuts and berries
fit for a king
but it gazed out the bars of its cage
and slowly starved
they tore him apart
for not singing with the choir
for giving up the bright lights
and burning down vestiges of power

remember
a bloodthirsty wolf
is never satisfied
a bloodthirsty wolf
is never satisfied

so why tear your wings off
to placate the angry mob?
why tear your wings off
to placate the darkness of the world?
the darkness of the world
