Absence of Fear & This Little Bird - Jewel

Absence of fear - Jewel (Spirit)

Inside my skin there is this space,

It twists and turns,

It bleeds and aches.

Inside my heart there's an empty room,

It's waiting for lightning,

It's waiting for you.

And I am wanting,

And I am needing you here,

Inside the absence of fear.

Muscle and sinew.

Velvet and stone.

This vessel is haunted,

It creeks and moans.

My bones call to you

In their separate skin.

I make myself translucent

To let you in, for

I am wanting,

And I am needing you here,

Inside the absence of fear.

There is this hunger,

This restlessness inside of me.

And it knows that you're no stranger,

you're my gravity.

My hands will adore you through all darkness aim,

They will lay you out in moonlight

And reinvent your name.

For I am wanting you,

And I am needing you here.

I need you near,

Inside the absence of fear.

This Little Bird

There's a little bird,

Somebody sent

Down to the earth to

Live on the wind.

Blowing on the wind,

She sleeps on the wind,

This little bird,

Little bird.

Light and fragile

and feathered sky-blue.

Thin and gracefull,

The sun shining through.

She flies so high,

Up in the sky,

Way out of reach

Of human eyes.

Light and fragile,

and feathered sky-blue.

Thin and graceful,

The sun shining through.

She flies so high,

Up in the sky,

Way out of reach

Of human eyes.

Light and fragile,

She's feathered sky-blue.

Thin and graceful,

The sun shining through.

And the only time

She touches the ground,

Is when that little bird,

Little bird,

Is when that little bird,

Little bird,

Is when that little bird,

Dies.
