Bird of Pain

As I fly with no sound across the earth I see all with no judgement except for birth through the mist of the ocean insanity dwells as the lifeless bodies propel to hell For I am nothing but a bird or so you think Without me chaos would reign and the angels would blink Thank you pain, for without you nothing would gain I feel shame, thank you pain once again Without you I not tell what I see Could it be you respect me? I find that hard to believe Im not holy, nor a savior, all I do is retrieve, Once you die, you will envy me as I see what I see You will beg for forgiveness but it is too late You have now become part of natures sympathetic bait when the time has come I hope that you will see what I see then you will realize "damn, that bird was me" Thank you pain, I see what you see
