You came from the stars
Down to my heart
You stole it with your talons
Then rode on winter wind, home

I saw the moonlight sparkle
On your bleach white wings
I saw the hunger in your golden eyes

Now I am a mouse trapped in your     
        beak
Now I am a skeleton in the pellet you    
       leave
Now we fly together,
                     my soul wrap up in yours
Now we fly to heaven,
                     where you deposit me

Those evil yellow eyes stare at me
Seeing futures I cannot see
Sitting; being so wise, being so posed
Looking at the world for your next meal

Burrowed in the ground
Now flying high
How far you have come
How far you have to fall

Now I am a mouse trapped in your     
        beak
Now I am a skeleton in the pellet you    
       leave
Now we fly together,
                     my soul wrap up in yours
Now we fly to heaven,
                     where you deposit me

The skies turn grey
The glistening flakes fall
This white world changes
Yet you and I are here
The snowy dunes
Change their curves
The white plain
Becomes all new
Our footsteps and blood stains
Are all erased
We begin another day... now

Now I am a mouse trapped in your     
        beak
Now I am a skeleton in the pellet you    
       leave
Now we fly together,
                     my soul wrap up in yours
Now we fly to heaven,
                     where you deposit me

And one day, our roles change
And I soar the skies
And you hide among the snow.
