Boy 04:05
Your clear and dark eyes used to show your youth, like landlocked pools of waters troubled, by a selfish patron and mirthless laughter, when you cried. Your friends were many but companions few, so when you came of age away you flew, you've come round again to the home you knew, and then you cried. Did you speak the words from your deepest heart, to surrender your soul, so know your part, to lead them onward don't lead from behind, or you'll cry. The world is spinning like a whirlwind of sand, and your thoughts are throbbing as they fly out of hand, friendly hearts are near who will help you find the cure, so don't you cry.

Denial 03:00
one or two things i'm thinking of, whether sky's below or ground's above. i'm just floating on a sea of grass, as the years of moments pass. as these moments fly away.

little flowers growing on the hillside follow the sun with their faces expression of wonder and awe on the hillside tugging their roots to begin paces little flowers moving on the hillside follow the sun from left to right some are picked are picked for lovers' brides some wander until out of breath small flower crying on the hillside wandered the earth and wept a sea small flower dying on the hillside to feed more flowers that will be

Step Away 04:20
i step into this pain that i am seeing standing here i can feel it so much i am an oracle, the fates are the air i breathe i can see your time and feel the passing days and the tears are raining down your face i would steal your pain and make it my own i try to hold you as you claw my face i reach out to heal you but you step away am i not wealthy? i am rich in my soul. can i not content you with my balms as you bleed? i am a healer, your wounds are the lips i kiss. i stem back the tide and give you back your life and the tears are raining down your face i would steal your pain and make it my own i try to hold you as you claw my face i reach out to heal you but you step away

Connections 05:17
if i were strong, if i were weak, if i were wrong, if i may break, will you hold my hand? if i may crawl, if i may lie, if i may fall, if i may die, will you hold my hand? if they hate me, and if i hate me, and if you hate me, and if i hate you, will you hold my hand?

Broken 02:21
So the pasture gates are broken, the shepherd has lost his sheep, the wolf's wide jaws are open, and he's eaten Bo Peep. The pain you feel is very real, and it spreads through all you do, the pain you cause is very near, and it severs me from you. if you're living no one knows where, i hope you've not lost your way. so i say a silent prayer, my broken melody.

Killing Days 03:33
i can see men hiding in the fields playing war like small guerillas. i can see children working in the yard, it's hard being so small inside. i think i hear laughter echo off the walls, it's just a memory fading slowly. do you remember when we became used, we lost our heroes there forever. it's the killing time, it's the killing days, we'll be killing time in our own ways. maybe tomorrow i'll see you soon, but don't hold your breath, we're parting ways now, because it's the killing days.

about

An earthbound bird is a creature unable to fly. Without its head, it has no guidance, no compass. An earthbound bird is a symbol of a creature which needs change. The Earthbound Bird is an album about different kinds of change. Change which is needed, unwanted, inevitable, unpleasant, and denied.
