"While All the Birds Sang..."
While all the birds sang except for one--
'Cause she went unnoticed by everyone.
While all the birds sang except for one--
'Cause she was very different from everyone.
While all the birds sang except for me--
Because I was learning how to live life free.
While all the birds sang except for me--
Because I was figuring out who I wanted to be.
While all the birds sang except for me--
Because I was learning how to spread my wings.
While all the birds sang except for me--
As I was let down by everything.
While all the birds sang except for me--
Because I was left out of everything.
While all the birds sang except for me--
The next day they found me dead, left in my tree.
While all the birds sang except for me--
After I found out that no one was listening to me.
