From a great concept and hook by Tom Solanto. Sometimes life is not all soaring and singing...

took-the-red-pill

I'm a songwriter with a few tools, a love for a good hook, and the desire to make music. I have been writing for years, but when I became a Christain, suddenly almost all of my work became to, for or about God. It's not something I conciously chose, it just happened. We write what we're given I suppose.

Lyrics

I'm in a season of doubt 
I don’t know if I can fly 
will I fly to you Lord, 
or just crash and die

So I open my throat 
To sing to your heart 
But what little comes out
Just has no spark

I'm like a bird with no wings 
I'm like a song with no voice to sing 
A cup with no water
A love with no lover
A bell with no ring
A bird with no wings

When the emptiness comes
And I long for your spirit
I hold out my body
And hope that you’ll fill it.

But I don’t think you’re there
Because the lava burns hotter
And it burns from inside
And I long for cool water

 
I'm like a bird with no wings 
I'm like a song with no voice to sing 
A cup with no water
A love with no lover
A bell with no ring
A bird with no wings

bridge
And I could fly if you’d help me
So why don’t you tell me
How, as I come down to pray

And I’d make the choice
To sing for you if my voice
Would come to stay

I'm like a bird with no wings 
I'm like a song with no voice to sing 

A cup with no water
A love with no lover
A girl with no colour
A boy with no mother

A bee with no sting
A crown with no king
A bell with no ring
A bird with no wings
