Birdie

My name is Birdie
But I barely know how to fly
I am lost in a place
I don’t know how to describe

It’s like I live between two worlds
There’s nothing in the middle for me
I keep trying to side with one
But it’s so hard to just try and be

Nobody sees me the way that I want them to
My inner perception changes
And I can’t seem to break through

I can’t seem to exist without
Another validating who I am
My face is jumbled
Reflections crumble
Until I feel a damn sham

My name is birdie
And I’m trying to learn how to fly
I am here in a place
I don’t know how to describe

I’ve been so many things
And too little of others
I live between planes
Exist between mother and father

But there’s cole
She’s my rock
Speaking elemeno tones
Without a clock

I felt free with her
Like I could be with her
But our time was cut so short

Now I wanna be with her
Yeah, I wanna go see her
I’ve got eyes on me though it’d be the last resort

My name is birdie
I need to know myself before I fly
I live in a place
Other’s wouldn’t be able to describe

But I know I’m not alone
I know there’s more than one place to call home
Whether it’s people
Or a place it’s all equal to me*

When you don’t have a home
Or a place to call your own
When you don’t have a home
Or a place to call your own

My name is birdie
I’m barely learning to fly
I live in a place
Some other’s might be able to describe

I know I’m not alone
I know there’s more than one place to call home
Whether it’s people
Or a place it’s all equal

To me
