about

I believe I wrote this in 2002, when I was 16/17 and still in sixth form. Throughout that time I was having a Really Hard TimeTM socially. I spent a lot of time imagining I was a falcon and could just fly up and away out of the middle of the laughing people who generally encircled me
I think it was a message from myself, to myself to keep my shit together and not let my cheese slide right off my cracker.

lyrics

Talons for fortune I'll have to leave,
Follow the falcon and live for the wind,
Call her name - will she answer my calling?
Go with her - and flee,

Freedom in the tree line,
Hatred in dark cages,
Governed by the sun, with sight to see through pain,
Their words cease to sting,

Hawks wing by free fall, by wonder and peace,
Fly with the falcon - be still let her teach,
In her talon take slaughter for calling,
In your name I'll fight,

Freedom chasing blue skies,
May you ever fly on,
Governed by the sun
I'll strive to reach your heights,
In your name I'll fight.

Steel backed and sickle winged, death on the wind,
Power and beauty, far sighted eyes keen,
Knowing all knowing the secrets you keep,
In beauty of death, the skies nobility

Horus's tribute, be still let her teach,

Take flight.

Freedom in the tree line,
Hatred in dark cages,
Governed by the sun with sight to see through pain,
In your name I'll fight,
In your name I'll fight,
In your name I'll fight
