Lyrics

Sparrow Lost (2023)

There is no lost
Like sparrow lost
There are no maps, there is no atlas
‘Cause when you’re lost, sparrow lost
Every branch and tree is suspect

Sparrow languages are many
There are five hundred words for fly
And every thread of that cacophone
Provides great meaning to a sparrow who is lost
Sparrow lost
Lost
Sparrow lost
Lost

There is no hunger
Like sparrow hunger
Spend their whole lives scrapping for every morsel that they get
Can’t sate that hunger with wings in motion
All of that foraging creates more hunger

Sparrow hunting grounds are few
And their numbers are many
And this holy war for food
Creates such tension between sparrows who are lost
Sparrow Lost
Lost
Sparrow lost
Lost
