And Then the Birds Came

Lyrics

It was just a month ago
 When my body failed me
 My body failed me
 Then I received a phone call
 From my daddy
 His body failed
 Him
 Too
 What are we to do?
 It was like the sky fell
 All around us
 All around us
 And a billion stars
 They lost their brightness
 We lost our brightness
 It was so dark
 It was so
 Dark
 It was like the candle
 It burned from both ends
 I tried to stop it
 Then
 It lit my chest up
 I poured my heart out
 I felt so much love
 And then the birds came
 They took my dad away
 It was so quiet
 Then
 The world just came alive
 My mama came alive
 My brother came alive
 That's how my daddy lived
 The birds they wanted him
 They knew he'd help them fly
