Cover art for Bluebird lyrics by Sara Bareilles

She has received the divorce papers. It was a long marriage that they'd tried over and over to make work. Somebody had to call it a day. It could have been either of them, but she's fairly certain it wasn't her. Now, comes the time to start her life over. She's rusty with playing the single's game. But, where before, one of the reasons to keep her marriage was so she wouldn't have to put herself through this. Now, she's resigned to the fact that it is time to move forward. Not alone but with bluebird. The symbolic part of her own Self - not the person who was Mrs So and So; not the mother; not the homemaker, but the beautiful, desirable, lovable person she once was.
