Analysis of Still Wings Flutter
Michael Henderlight 1961 (Tennessee)
Staring at the screen, laser focused
Still wings flutter
Hand at ten and two, staring at the lines
Still wings flutter
Image in the mirror, can’t see beyond
Still wings flutter
Head on the pillow, lost in dreams
Still wings flutter
Wake me up, wake me up
Still wings flutter
All trees, no forest
Still wings flutter
Still wings flutter
But I can’t hear them
