"Blackbird" - Evan Rachel Wood
It's 31 minutes to midnight in this warm night in August. The window is open, lights are dim with my fan set on "cool," yet the temperature still sits at 81-degrees Fahrenheit. 31-August-81. I find this amusing to say the least.
I know I don't really know everything there is to know about you right now. I know that even if you do or did tell me everything, it's still not the same because I'm not you. However, for the first time since US, you reached out to me not because you felt you needed to...not out of pity or shame...not out of guilt or blame...and not because you wanted me to do this for you. I can't even if I wanted to. You reached out to reach out.
This downward spiral you're on is spinning rather quickly, but take it as a reality check that you're tired of getting dizzy. Something had to happen for you to not only be aware of it, but to finally do something about it. Even if it wasn't you who intentionally initiated it, it was you who created it. So, jump off already and take care of you.
Lyrics:
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
