Glue and Feathers, recorded live at the Bookbinders Open MIc session, 24th April 2011. Written in 2009, a song of dedication and support.

Glue and feathers

Lafayette

Trespass

What do I do now?

View near Gotham

Glue and feathers

Oh when you dive, as you must, to a depth that would crush you

I will wait on the beach and guard your things  

And when you're fighting as you have been with the demons only you see

I'll bring you the scissors and the string

I'll bring you the scissors and the string

And when you tread the finest line between false friends and the fury

Your body questions if it's in your nature

To adapt so quick so many kicks and enemies you can never fix

And all that I can do is bring you paper

And all that I can do is bring you paper

And when you do this job you didn't take, with skills you created

I can comfort all i can until forever

I am the burden and the blessed, one day we'll get some rest

But for now I bring you glue and feathers

But for now I bring you glue and feathers
