Fly Away

In the wind, like a kite I’ve been

Scared and shaking, almost breaking but

You keep the string

So hold me down and

A new verb is happening all around

Keep me so I won’t fly away

All I know is all I’ve been

Stacking boxes, countin’ losses

Wooden skin

But the light from your room

In the hurricane is comforting, let me in

Keep me so I won’t fly away

So hold me down and

A new verb is happening all around

Keep me so I won’t fly away
