It’s not the ones you love that make you fly
It’s not the ones that hurt you that you make cry
It’s not the facts or the truth that you make a lie
It’s not the war of words that took you to the sky
So sail on… alone
Red-winged blackbird
You listen to the questions when answers are everywhere
You listen to the fears when everything is hope
You listen to the nightmares which are really only dreams
You listen to the silence when all we hear are screams

It’s all in the beat now
Pounding on the ground
It’s all in the beat now
Digging through the lost and found
It’s all in the beat now
Two sticks upon the drum
It’s all in the beat now
Hear the mourning of the one…
