lyrics

all day my kite flew up in the sky
tightly pulling its wire from my
chaffed hand to my broken heart
my slowly sinking kite

you whisper that the weight of the soul
is the weight of a mouse
i wait for more
but i’m so at a loss
my hand pulled up to the sky

but before this kite
comes crashing down into the trees
come here and feel
the weight of grief
stand in front of me
and feel the pull and take the strain

all day my kite flew up in the sky
all day my kite
my kite
