Cover art for Feathers  lyrics by A Perfect Circle

Feathers is basically a call for peace and unity as well as calm and sanity. In a way similar to Eat the Elephant it’s telling us that we will be able to fly, we will have wings and feathers, if only we can get a grip and pull ourselves together. In both personal and interpersonal ways. Because personally we can see ourselves as damaged, broken or useless (anchor, lead or stone), it’s not true when we talk to each other (show and tell), we can see that it’s not so, unite and grow our wings.
