Wasted night time passing through me
Soundless suffering in a silent sea
I slept solid on the dark night sky
Like a bird with a flock sail I

Night wind song is singing
There are no words, but just this tune
Your solidity lies as you take to the sky
And grackle brown becomes a rainbow sound

But back to the line in the grocery store
And the lines on my face tell me it's been one more
Survival of the fittest in this day-to-day today
There's so much to touch and a lot to pay

Day wind song is singing
With words without a tune
Infinity flies like a bird-brained lie
And grackle brown becomes solid ground

I'm looking for a pattern in a tattered world
It's an endless task for a tired girl
Just another grackle in the yard
Squawking and strutting, afraid I'll get fired

For sailing on a night wind
For dreaming up this tune
For looking like a loon and tripping on the moon
'Cause it's round, and tonight is grackle brown
                                and tonight is grackle brown
