What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
After one but before the next,
2
In a tree where new life writhed and flexed
3
Two birds emerged to hold the world
4
And grow from feeble talons curled
5
But fate see them part that day
6
As lightning cut their branch away
7
By winds to distant places sent
8
Almost as if it all had meant
9
That though their bloodied wounds would fade,
10
They'd wonder where their brother lay
11
For every day from that day on
12
They'd wait to hear a certain song
13
In vain, for years, thought one was strong
14
And one was not, for far too long
15
Until his bones and thoughts were old,
16
And feathers burnt and lost and cold
17
The stronger of the two could see
18
A distant bird, how weak was he
19
In drawing near but knowing not,
20
Just who he was, or why, or what
21
the stronger talons tore at flesh
22
And stripped away that feathered mess
23
And all without a sound or cry,
24
Or even ever knowing why
25
Yet as the sun began to sink
26
He seemed to sense, he seemed to think
27
That soon his brother might appear
28
From somewhere close, from somewhere near
29
Convinced this was his brother's fate,
30
Above his corpse, he sat... to wait
