letra de birdsongs in the aftermath - the pseudonyms

verse:
after digging our own graves
in case of the very worst
and waging war on ourselves
to satisfy an insane god’s bloodthirst
we burn down the city into soot & ash
shut down the freeways, highways, & banks
hide underground with the insects & rats
& wait for the firestorm to pass

chorus:
poison-clouds recede
alarms & sirens peel & fade
the war-machine runs out of lives
to torture, k!ll, & waste
our relieved gasps break the
bl–dy-violet dawn

verse:
life becomes an endless dream
as night envelops everything
sleep & wait & hum & mumble
try not to think about these troubles

chorus:
the warm breeze smells like the first spring rain
lightning silhouettes the golden cloudbank
thunder rolls over the river & through the trees
bridge:
uncanny silence
then whispering winds through leaves like seaweed
breathless riptide
the percussion of rainfall batters the hillside

refrain:
heavens darken w/wings
a murmuration the size of a city
swims over the skyline
paints the horizon in motion
sculpts the wind in flight
the mind flows inward
as memory & experience
become one & the same
time folds in on itself
to sustain & derange
a symphony in birdsong
of survival & celebration
