[00:00.00]One Small Bird - Matt Duke
[00:10.07]There's a small girl with her backpack
[00:13.89]
[00:14.82]Filled with textbooks out of date
[00:18.87]
[00:19.81]Sings a new song every block
[00:24.35]And gets to school about ten of eight
[00:28.97]
[00:29.85]For each hopscotch on the school lot 
[00:34.76]There's a wall that's tagged with names 
[00:39.70]And heavy bars conceal the windows
[00:43.09]
[00:44.78]Etched remarks detail the frames
[00:48.91]
[00:50.60]One small bird flew away from this earth
[00:58.96]
[01:00.60]Wings pushing so high
[01:07.60]
[01:10.78]But looking down on that once fragile ground 
[01:19.15]
[01:20.58]She's happy to be in the sky
[01:27.23]
[01:35.74]O' How the sunlight burns the pavement 
[01:39.96]As the sweat forms on her brow
[01:43.99]
[01:44.75]There's some shade beneath the building
[01:49.75]And the hydrant's open now
[01:54.76]And as they line up from their recess 
[01:59.86]Cracking sounds disrupt the sky 
[02:03.84]
[02:04.78]And tiny holes as big as pennies
[02:10.19]Mark the walls as children cry
[02:13.93]
[02:15.80]And one small bird flew away from this earth
[02:24.25]
[02:25.57]Wings pushing so high
[02:34.96]But looking down on that once fragile ground 
[02:45.57]She's happy to be in the sky
