The Fox and the Bird lyrics

[Verse 1]
A walk home, vermillion path

His wings grew thin, his spirit didn't care
A warm talk with words unspoken
A scorching sun, an infatuated wind

Shall we stay inside our shells?
As the reaper takes his prey
The world will only darken without candlelight
With you, I think I'll try to get to the other side

[Instrumental Break]

As the reaper takes his prey
Oh, the world will only darken without candlelight
With you, I think I'll try
