Rare Bird - Toad The Wet Sprocket

I talk too much, I always do

'Til sense is lost along with truth

Your silence is the harmony

To every word I truly mean

Your mind is like a rare bird

Flying high above the cold world

Slow dancing in the thermals

Singing songs no one’s ever heard

So why’d they want to cage you

Clip wings and try to tame you

You were meant to be free

Though state of fugue and breach of trust

I see you new again my love

You hold so much so gracefully

From miracle to tragedy

Your mind is like a rare bird

Flying high above the cold world

Slow dancing in the thermals

Singing songs no one’s ever heard

So why’d he want to cage you

Clip wings and try to tame you

You were meant to be free

Some shine brighter than the sun

Too brilliant to gaze upon

And rarer than rhodium

Hear me, wherever you are tonight

You better be flying high

You’d better be flying high

Your mind is like a rare bird

Flying high above the cold world

Slow dancing in the thermals

Singing songs no one’s ever heard

So why’d I want to cage you

Clip wings and try to tame you

You were meant to be free
