Be Born Today Lyrics by Valley Maker

Rhododendron

2018

[Verse 1]
The sky opens for me
The earth swallows my feet
Blackbird coming down so mean
Bloodstain on the silent street
Well it's nice to meet you
Strange enough to pass through
Knowledge of a violent deed
Windfall and the roots are weak
[Verse 2]
Time, it only takes away
I give a little more each day
Distance on a crooked plane
Cities never learn my name
Winter day, the cold beach
Covered in the air you breathe
Seagulls flying down so mean
Hold on to the love I need
[Chorus]
Someone had to be born today
Someone had to learn to walk away
Tell me do you hold the weight?
Tell me do you wake up strange?
One of these days
One of these days
[Verse 3]
Summer day the cemetery
Standing in the weight under the tree
Time moved and the ground gave way
Her name with so many names
Well what can I bring you?
Everything I was, everything I knew
Take off in the light of day
Something always left to say
[Chorus]
Someone had to be born today
Someone had to learn to walk away
Tell me do you hold the weight of change?
Tell me do you wake up feeling strange?
One of these days
One of these days
