lyrics
One black bird sitting in my tree
Singing to another and staring at me
A life full of nothing, free of care
A life I envy, no crosses to bear
Unable to judge, unable to see
The worlds problems, a life so free
Can't see gender, can't see race
Sees through the lies, sees through the face
A simple existence, a life of need
Living for the moment, free of greed
One day at a time, waiting for the light
Looking for a meaning, deterred by the night
Wouldn't trade places, wouldn't switch sides
Because in life there's a meaning to find
"Your whole life you've wanted to fly like me
And all I ever wanted was to be free to think"
