FUR AND FEATHERS
Written by Holly Lindin, copyright Aloe Records 2012
Lotus on a glacier, sensing all the penguins swim by, by
I'm unable to measure to distance I have traveled Light, Light
Send me down the Arctic; goosebumps are the fabric I wear, wear
Bergs and winter whistles - all the icicles of my hair
(It's not possible to turn back time)
I have learned that what I've learned are lies
(It's not possible to turn back time)
All these lies have destroyed so many lives
CHORUS:
Ah, all this starting over
Ah, scratching on the surface
Ah, treading all this water
Ah, we finally have a purpose
Seeking out the colony - fur and feathers on the Sunline, line
Embracing my destiny as one of the few who must try, try
To form another civilization - we will be fine, fine
Learn from mistakes our parents made - we're the last of our kind, kind
(It's not possible to turn back time)
I have learned that what I've learned are lies
(It's not possible to turn back time)
All these lies have destroyed so many lives
CHORUS
(Gusts of my breath on the air
Turn to ash then to dust then to shadow - now they flare . . . ) x 3
Fur and feathers . . .
(It's not possible to turn back time . . . ) x 2
Ah, treading all this water
Ah, we finally have a purpose
