Birthmark - Flightless Bird lyrics

[Verse 1] Everything you sense is just a bend or a curse Every deviance be a tremor or a breath Is a stray from the potential path [Chorus] It remains a mystery That you could not know You are a stranger To the cultures of most See how the children tried to embrace the flightless bird They couldn't yet form words But I could sense what they wanted to say I'm only trying to translate [Verse 2] And the room that you're in Must not let sense let in Of all the futures to visit I'll be there dangling off the end Of the most bent branch of the tree You can't miss me May others beings brush up against me [Chorus] How could you not know You are a stranger To the cultures of most See how the children tried to embrace the flightless bird They couldn't yet form words But I could sense what they wanted to say I'm only trying to translate
