...little bird i invite you.

I just thought I'd elaborate more on the title of my blog. It is a piece of the lyrics from the song "Antlers" by the Microphones. The lyrics are as follows:
little bird i invite you, build your nest
little bird, i've got branches above my head
sway with me aimlessly, walk over mountains high
find winter nights with me, hang in your hammock high over me and over flight and all fright
to me
pick up your hands and become reindeers or maybe a storm
be pleasant be glassy be born
go ahead be the bird in my horns
come with me
When i heard this song for the first time all this imagery flooded my head and so I drew out some of what I saw in my head and it's on my bulletin board at work with some of the lyrics on it.
To me, when I hear the words and when I feel moved by the music itself I feel alive and inspired. That doesn't happen with every song of theirs but this one specifically.
