The greatest power of life

Is held not by those who live it

Not by the sun or star or moon

By the parrot or owl or angel

It is held by the dead

The yellow feathers drifting along the wind

The one who sang his last note

Said 'I am dead' said 'dont follow me'

And who was ignored

For the living kneel before the feet of the dead

Stand before his grave

It is not the survivors who truly win

But the canary who watched from afar

Floating above the wind

'Go home' you said 'its over'

And he did not listen

He said 'this is the end, this is home' he said

There is a ring in his feathers

Rose gold, pink and yellow

There is a bound on his soul

On his flesh and his blood

And yet it is he who holds true strength

He who lives amongst the coal

Not the miners who failed to heed him

But the songbird who warned them
