Save your soul

It's bright with holes

Rays upon pinion

Lay me down



Our trust lies in mighty wing

As we thrust ourselves into the drink

Pitched boats sail and ploughmen toil



Slow your gaze

Away these waves

Stain reflection

May we drown



This is our last goodbye

This is our final cry

This separation of bird and bone

Is an introduction to tide and lung



We've resigned ourselves to soar home

Despite these wayward eyes
