Amel Larrieux - Bravebird lyrics

rate me

In a land far away where the sun doesn't spare a soul

And a twisted tradition has a girl in a strangle hold

Lies a desert with the footprints

Of little girls with a secret

Of a pain

That you and i could never know

Little feet running fast as they can like a bird in flight

Through the days of sand with a fire in the sky

And through indigo nights

She runs away from a life spent

Being witness to other unwilling participants

Of a pain

That you and i will never know

Your a bravebird

Of the rarest kind

You may be one of the walking wounded

But still you fly

Your a bravebird

You put yourself on the line

When you shared your secret with the world

You saved another mothers child as she speaks you can tell that

The words are not easy to say

The hold the power to transport her back to that impossible day

But she hasn't any regrets

Cuz' she won't become a woman with a secret

Of a pain

That you and i could never know

You and i could never know

You and i could never know

You're a bravebird...... a bravebird.....fly high.....

In the sky.....there you are
