katie herzig - songbird lyrics
i dwell in the songhouse
and song is my breath
i will sing my life long
and in shrouds made of song
i will sleep at my death
i was born to be songbird
and my song will be love
and the music will rise
through the depths of the skies
to the planets above
i was bought in the market
for silver and song
and i grew in the songhouse
to be n-ble and strong
and the song grew within me
and my voice soon took wing
now the love cradles ’round me
with each note i sing
as the emperor’s songbird
i was trained from the start
from the very first teacher
who opened my heart
to the people who heard me
in the palace each day
i have given my music
and my spirit away
i am old now and silent
and my songs are all sung
and the tales of my lifetime
will not p-ss my tongue
but the glory still haunts me
and my lessons survive
and the work of the songbirds
will continue to thrive
