if only I were a bird

See this bird flying in the sky
So free it seems
Sweet melodies were sang so loud
It seemed so proud

I was on my own
Fighting a war I was never sure I would win.
I chose to throw my gear in the bin
So I could go back to a place called home
There too I was forgotten
Like an abandoned bundle

If I were a bird freedom would be my destiny
Humans can decide their own
Trespassing the holy and mighty trinity
Loneliness has become our only source of survival in this ghost town
No more clowns no more laughter
The life after is not the life we living

If I were a bird I would fly to it
I would fly over the oceans
Sunrise to sunset
Moon rise to sunshine
Summer to autumn
Winter to spring
Where all birds sing freely a sweet melody
That heals and renews a soul,spirit,and body
If only I were a bird.
