Myrrhine
We were crawling through the underbrush Out in South Dakota in the snow We were searching for a place to hide When you found a dying bird
And we named him after Jesus Christ, And we told him all the tallest tales, And we fed him seeds and flower stems, And resolved to keep him warm
Then he flew away with no regrets And we watched him as he disappeared And we sat and tried to sprout some wings, And ended up falling asleep.
So we set ourselves to work again, Built a kitchen table with our hands And we filled it with the highest hopes And the most unlikely plans

And we carved their figures out of soap, Every detail was exactly right And they were beautiful to me and you, But they couldn't speak a word.
You were scared that we'd wasted all that love But it was more than we could ever get rid of
We kept our word, never turned back to see the graves It was better way, couldn't tell the difference. We drew a bird on the wall and named him after us, And he stayed by our side and never flew away.
