Survive

from Hibernaculum by Lewis Mullen

/

lyrics

In our little nest high up in the sky
Over winter we survive
So that in summer we may thrive
In our little nest high up in the sky

From time to time a storm
Rattles timbers, batters eaves
Wind whistles its song
Accented by flying leaves

Though the winter’s raging
Blowing howling shaking panes
It’s not our war it’s waging
No, not ever again

In our little nest way up in the sky
Over winter we survive

Now and then a crash
Of broken glass on concrete
The animals may clash
Down there on the street

Though the wild life are so fierce
Shouting, cursing outside the pubs
Here we are safe from their jeers
Warm and happy in our hub

[improvised rounds over outro]:
In our nest way up in the sky
Over winter we survive
So that in summer we may thrive
In our nest way up in the sky
Over winter we survive
So that in summer we may thrive
In our nest way up in the sky

I write the kind of music I'd like to listen to, and I hope you enjoy listening to it to. It's a window into a slightly different world that's a more honest mirror of our own
