islands
swans (life after death)
Swans Swans Swans sing songs  All night long Who knew how warm the islands were  While the frogs look on It's what the birds prefer  And it's still warm after the sun has gone   I woke up thirsty the day I died  And the tide was swirling  My mouth is so dry And all I see is sea to shining seas  Swans Swans Swans sing songs  All night long Who knew how warm the islands would be  And who knew just how much  The sky covers me It makes you forget what it means to be free   I climbed into the blowhole In the ribs I found you  With a wick we lit a flame Now look at the smoke that it blew   The mouth is so wide  Yet all I see is sea  And azure sky A little wave and ebb tide   Rivers leak Salt seeps in  Heals wounds Winds pry apart  Rivers leak Salt seeps in  Heals wounds Winds pry apart  Rivers leak Salt seeps in  Heals wounds Winds pry apart  Swans Swans Swans sung songs  'Til the morning dawned on us And the sun-smudged peach moon still hung loose   Bones  Bones  Bones Groan The sparrows in the trees we leave them for They love the marrow   I'm thankful for my life  I'm thankful for my life
