Story behind the song
Song #1 for February Album Writing Month (www.fawm.org) and rpmchallange (www.rpmchallange.com). It's a song about hope. I recorded this while being sick with a bad cold....so the voice has some crackily stuff, but i like it.
Lyrics
SPARROW
VI
Days, like a shadow fall
Fear, like an endless hall
Hunger, on it's belly crawls
But the broken wing, Sparrow sings
VII
Lonely as an empty tomb
empty as a rented room
bitter as old wormwood
but the broken wing, sparrow sings
CH
Baby, I've lost my way
baby, I've lost my way
been making gods
out of clay
VIII:
Grace Falls on her Face,
Falling like a paper doll
falling like a paper doll
but the broken wing sparrow sings
Bridge:
I'm hollow like a rusted hull
like gunshots at a funeral
hollow like a honeycomb
hollow like birds bones,
Ch
