Hummingbird

from Hummingbird by Casee Wilson

lyrics

She's leaving trails in the dark like a firefly
Her every move a spark you wanna amplify
You wanna bring her in and keep her safe and warm
You'll never understand, she doesn't fear the storm

She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
Her song's for her, she will never sing for you
She's a burning flame and she cannot be tamed
She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
You clip her wings, she'll just grow them back like new
She's a cannonball against a paper wall

You watch her fearless flight, the way she owns the sky
You see her razor bright, as she goes flashing by
You think to show your love, you'll keep her locked away
You'll never understand, she won't do what you say

She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
Her song's for her, she will never sing for you
She's elemental rage and she cannot be caged
She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
You clip her wings, she'll just grow them back like new
She's the rushing flood, the burning in your blood

You try and you try but you can't stop her flying
She'll fly til she dies, that's the way she is
You grip and you grip but you can't stop her slipping
Out of your grasp, that's the way she is

She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
Her song's for her, she will never sing for you
She's a burning flame and she cannot be tamed
She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
You clip her wings, she'll just grow them back like new
She's a cannonball against a paper wall

She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
Her song's for her, she will never sing for you
She's elemental rage and she cannot be caged
She's a hummingbird, you will never learn
You clip her wings, she'll just grow them back like new
She's the rushing flood, the burning in your blood

The burning in your blood.

Casee is a piano-acoustic singer-songwriter based in Madrid where she migrated in desperation after Brexit.. Her style has been described as "emotionally walloping piano-folk" but she likes to sprinkle synth elements into her music too.

When she is not gigging or writing she enjoys aikido, taiko drumming and chocolate.
And gin.

But we don’t like to talk about that. *hic* ... more
