I was orphaned as a child
Lost in the woods and raised by owls
I tried so hard to get the bones back out
I was not born to the darkness
I learned to fear the breaking dawn
One day I saw my brittle body in a pond
I threw a rock into the water, I was gone

I've been losing ground
My feet are bloody, wrapped in rags, unfit to climb
Thin and pale, weighed down
By the burden of the boy I left behind

I was frightened as a man
Flightless, foreign, and unwell
Without a coin to fondle, without a shirt to sell
I drank the few of early morning
Uneasy on the city streets
Like a coyote on the corner creeps
I killed somebody's cat and cried myself to sleep

I've been losing ground
My feet are bloody, wrapped in rags, unfit to climb
Thin and pale, weighed down
By the burden of the boy I left behind
