White Feathers

in the center of the room, as feathers float down he paints a picture
but as the window with a good view closed, it is the bird from his painting...
the bird bound to his brush frantically flutters its wings
as he mournfully watches this,
his thoughts turn to her...

Will you please tell me the way to the sky
ill be with you soon, though i'm here now
Will you please tell me the way to the sky
it recedes away... i can't reach any higher

...i dont even know if its day or night anymore...

the many nights pass, he pointlessly opened the heavy window
sun and wind fill the room,
and he is taken away outside

Will you please tell me the way to the sky
rising through the winds
Will you please tell me the way to the sky
but closed, my wings won't spread and i fall

It looks like white feathers
after this small distortion i understand everything... the things that wont come true

Will you please tell me the way to the sky
ill be with you soon, though i'm here now
Will you please tell me the way to the sky
i can't even touch your fingertip..
like that bird, i am chained to this earth
Will you please tell me the way to the sky
i was there... in the sky where nothing changes
