Gotta flap my wings!
Whether I’m asleep or awake, I sing.
I’m just like a canary,
Steeped in glistening, sweet lies.
Whether I’m asleep or awake, I peck.
I’m not afraid of anything!
I sleep at the bottom of a jar of sweet honey.
All I need is to sing. That alone makes me lovely!
So let me stay here in this cage.
All I need is to scream. That alone makes me invincible!
So don’t open my cage… please!
I begin to fall…
Head first.
Waves of reality and emptiness draw me in,
As my chocolate, milk, and candy are all washed away!
Pulled in and out by the flow, I awaken.
My name is “Canary”.
The sweet lies leaking from me are empty.
Pulled in and out by the flow, I’m plucked.
I don’t have any feathers left!
I’m at the bottom of a deepening, sweet night.
If I’d just kept averting my eyes, things would have been just fine!
That’s why I’ve been here all along.
So don’t do anything uncalled-for!
No matter where I am, I’ll sing!
I’ll dance through the sky,
Even if my spell breaks.
With wet claws, I send garbage flying as I laugh,
Kicking my gummies, tarts, and cream all over the place!
Take flight, right now!
All I need is to sing. That alone makes me lovely!
But I don’t need my cage.
At this point,
All I need is to scream. That alone makes me invincible!
So just leave me alone… please!
It awakens
Inside me.
It stirs…
The “monster” within me!
Swallowing down both poison and love, I’ll open my mouth.
Even if I don’t have wings, I can still sing,
Heading far… far into the distance…
I don’t care if I’m left with nothing else. I’m not scared anymore.
I’m gonna sing, ’cause I’m a canary!
