lyrics

It's a sin to kill a mockingbird
I believe it though I don't believe in sin or souls, if truth be told
We're animals of meat and bone
but beasts who know we'll die and so we flee to pasts
or futures unknown

This one moment is all that there is
and this one life is full of moments just like this
I'm practicing....being

Do your best and keep your word
Ask for what you need and speak with kindness
That's all we can manage

Don't fall for a self-saboteur
They may not mean to hurt you but you'll still end up
their collateral damage

This one heart is worth it
Hold it tenderly
Show them, let them touch but
don't ever let their reach exceed their grasp

Know what to seek and what to watch pass
Know what to let die and what to hold fast
Either way that promise was never going to last
So let them fly from your heart
