Bird in a Gale Lyrics

Are you blowing like a bird in a gale?
Does the pain of your loss seep into your feathers like rain?
Do the bars of your cage feel low or cold to the touch?
Were my caresses too gentle?
Did I love you too much?

The dog is scratching at the door
The boy is drowning in the sea
Can I crash out on your floor?

The loon is howling at the sea
Can I crash out on your floor?
Is there room in the story for me?

Cover art for Bird in a Gale lyrics by Roger Waters

Most of my adult life I've felt like a stick in a fast flowing stream. I've got no control, I'm just bouncing along being thudded against rocks, getting stuck in eddies, swamped by waves, just going along.
