Description
Been crafting this tune for @wxpn since noon yesterday with my lovely cousin Jocelyn. This year’s theme was Freedom 🦅

LYRICS:
verse 1
sat by the river
and I made a friend
somehow I knew I’d never see again
native connection on the summer breeze
feather in the wind, I can set it free
mmmm
I’m used to the glimmer
of a golden cage
run through the wringer
that I hand-made
little did I know
I always had the key
burning real slow
but I think I see
mmmm
chorus
that endings are change
can’t carry the weight
I’m not meant to hold it in my hands
so I’ll send it away
on the wings of today
who knows where in the world it’ll land
na na na na na
na na na na na na na na
na na na, na na na
na na na, na na na (x2)
verse 2
time is a little like a tapestry
woven together with the memory
lovers and colors with a subtle fray
is what it is and it’s prettier this way
mmm
chorus
that endings are change
I’m gonna fly away
an eagle leaving feathers in its wake
if you’re needing the sign
look up to the sky
from your golden cage
