There Are Birds Lyrics
Theres a place I like to go
I like to be alone when there
are birds and it is cold
the grass is green and the trees sound
like stories of times
that I don't want (?) shows
and there was sky
(?) unsound
And there was life
children playing with marbles
one sits upon a statue
as faces are designed
looking forward, back, and at me
a language I don't know
it makes me want what I can't have
a place in this pond
could it be when they die?
I like to be alone when there

as faces are designed
looking forward, back, and at me
a language I don't know
it makes me want what I can't have
a place in this pond
could it be when they die?

I wish there was more of their lyrics on her.

I wish there were more on her too. Unfortunately I'm pretty horrible at telling lyrics apart from each other.
I love the instrumental part in the middle of the song.
this is going to sound odd, but, i first heard this song in my dreams.
and then i woke up, ran to my computer, typed the first lines of these lyrics out, and it turns out that this song really does exist.
this is....literally...the song of my dreams. hahaha:D
To me it sounds like someone wishing to go to a place where he can escape is responsibilities. The first line represents escaping to somewhere more peaceful and the kids playing with marbles in the second line represents his responsibilities.
