Echolyn - The Cardinal and I lyrics

Lyrics by 10-5-62 and Brett Kull I saw a cardinal and wanted it to change my life, but it's just a bird. We share the lines of infinite direction, but chose cannon into wall. Fluorescent skies of palest skin. I survive by stealing time from pipedreams hidden deep behind my eyes. It's a curse that we share as we drone on. We are fruitless, drained of life. I know that if I had the cardinal's wing, a light would shine on everything and we'd be golden. The cardinal and I are the same and we're running out of days. Flightless, born into a dying tree. I always hitch my name to the wrong star. But I prefer stars once they've fallen. I should be spinning planets on my fingertips. He should be miles high. I could be God, He'd be my heart and we'd be rid of all of this. Unforgiving, hopelessly we drift. Dissolve like daylight.
