[00:11.87]All that glitters wasnʼt gold
[00:16.98]As my ignorance unfolds
[00:22.30]Often have you heard that told
[00:27.26]Many a man his life hath sold
[00:32.85]To thine own self be true
[00:37.71]He is ill clothed that bare virtue
[00:42.94]Worms do enfold in guilted tombs
[00:48.26]Who pays the piper calls the tune
[00:53.37]Here goes the story of a bird
[00:58.66]Of waking life the trees were stirred
[01:03.66]From mighty oaks acorns mature
[01:08.93]Where faults are made lessons are learned
[01:22.06]So off you go little sparrow
[01:24.91]Find your wings and watch them grow
[01:27.37]You may fall but you will never be alone
[01:32.28]When things go wrong they sometimes will
[01:35.04]The clouds of doubt begin to fill
[01:37.65]Itʼs our willingness to step in the unknown
[01:42.19]If you wait for me there Iʼll wait for you
[01:47.58]Some lessons are best taught
[01:49.81]Not by our scars but by our wounds
[01:52.80]To make mistakes is natures way
[01:57.94]Of humbling us to face the simple truth
[02:23.16]If you wait for me Iʼll wait for you
[02:28.37]Some lessons are best taught
[02:30.42]Not by our scars but by our wounds
[02:33.41]To make mistakes is natures way
[02:38.45]Of humbling us to face the simple truth
[02:44.31]Into the midst of fabled skies
[02:46.77]A fleeting glimpse of paradise
[02:49.73]A trial must be earned
[02:54.60]Then out of the storm and rain he flies
[02:57.10]Shifting between paradigms
[02:59.41]Weeping for his wished return
[03:04.57]Mold and amend me ascending my
[03:24.86]So off you go little sparrow
[03:27.71]Find your wings and watch them grow
[03:30.22]You may fall but you will never be alone
[03:34.96]When things go wrong they sometimes will
[03:37.72]The clouds of doubt begin to fill
[03:40.39]Itʼs our willingness to step in the unknown
[03:46.16]A rolling stone gathers no moss
[03:51.76]Compelled to crystallize it's hue
[03:56.73]Adversity lifeʼs diamond dust
[04:02.11]Unearthing permeating clues
[04:07.08]In mystery our soul abides
[04:12.35]In seeking truth in where it lies
[04:17.21]None are so blind whoʼs absent mind
[04:22.44]While aching bones hold fervent finds
[04:27.40]Here ends the story of the bird
[04:32.42]Who must transcend to emerge
[04:37.38]To one day prosper and mature
[04:41.93]Till then rapture repeats the song of birth
[04:46.49]So off you go little swallow
[04:49.41]Trust you wings and watch them soar
[04:52.15]Courage is to know what not to fear
[04:57.23]When evening winds are hard to bear
[05:00.01]The clouds are dim with no one near
[05:02.86]Weʼll meet again beyond this vale of tears
