Red Bird Songtext
von Addict

I′ve been dreaming of a red bird
The peace of its gentle wings
It's an omen of better things
I′ve been waking with the same pain
It makes me want to sleep
And dream of a red bird

So build us a nest
For I've chosen to leave from so heavy here

Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting with my wings
I will have left the weight behind me of the blood of membranes
Where there once was despair
Tonight I will be free
And the slings and the stones that uncovered my bones
Will have flown my memory


I′ve been dreaming of a red bird
It sings of a way out
It sings of release
It′s been tapping on my window
To remind me it's waiting
That I have a choice

So build us a nest
For I′ve chosen to leave from so heavy here

Come to me tonight and I'll be waiting with my wings
I will have left the weight behind me of the blood of membranes
Where there once was despair
Tonight I will be free
And the slings and the stones that uncovered my bones
Will have flown my memory

And take me away from here
I am not equipped for such strain
Take away the fear
For how do you prepare for the pain?

Now I′m leaving with a red bird
Its arms leak again, I'm so happy here


Come to me tonight and I′ll be waiting with my wings
I will have left the weight behind me of the blood of membranes
Where there once was despair
Tonight I will be free
And the slings and the stones that uncovered my bones
Will have flown my memory

I've been dreaming of a red bird
The peace of its gentle wings
It's an omen of better things
I′ve been waking with the same pain
It makes me want to sleep
And dream of a red bird
