Wait

from Detained by Jake Lennon

lyrics

Wait, little bird
wait and you'll be free
this decision must be made
but not so carelessly
wait, little bird
leave it all to me
empowered I know more than you can see

Wait, common heart
wait away the years
in the dark your eyes adjust
the empty cell made dear
wait, common heart
wait and trust your fear
drown your hopes beneath your quiet tears

Wait, fragile soul
wait and know your place
the belief in life is felt and shared
but yours needs to be traced
wait, fragile soul
I will keep you safe
until I find the proof of your disgrace

Wait, dearest child
wait and learn to trust
that change and all it's sweet relief
will only come from us
wait, dearest child
wait long for you must
wait and watch the bars until they rust.
