Some Birds Don't Fly

No sense in denying

It's in the family blood

And it's hard to reconcile this

With the force she was

Hope you didn't feel a thing

I don't know why

You had that life

Some stars don't shine

Some birds don't fly

Doing that thing on your own

Well it don't bear thinking of

When you hide it with a stone

Well the truth hits like a rock

Hope you woke up smiling

I don't know why

You had that life

Some stars don't shine

Some birds don't fly

And I remember

Your August coat

But I never saw you wear it

And who knows why

You had to die

Some words don't rhyme

Some wings don't work
