Lyrics: Ari Nightingale/Amber Gronquist
Music: Amber Gronquist
⦑ Ari Nightingale ⦒
Fanged beak
Remake all of me
Identity
She made for me
I’ll be
-
⦑ Scarlet Nightingale (Ari Nightingale) ⦒
In your scarlet hues, all bright and bold
I will shower you with shining gold
-
(New life, new home, new clothes, adorned)
(New world, in love, I'll be reborn!)
-
Every part of you I will control
I will not misuse your willing hold
-
(My life, I’m told I must extol)
(Take on my role to be adored)
-
⦑ Ari Nightingale (Scarlet Nightingale) ⦒
Trophy Bird
I’m seen but never heard
Trophy Bird, I’m hers (Trophy Bird, I’m hers)
-
Watching the years go by
(Learning the rules up high)
I’ll be like her
-
⦑ Ari Nightingale ⦒
Look at their gazes
Oh, they're all amazed at me now
They put me up upon pedestals
Somehow expectable sight
I lean into the performance of power that I never craved
I stay to sing in gilded cages, their golden bars showing me off on display
In love I'll never stray
-
⦑ Ari Nightingale (Scarlet Nightingale) ⦒
Yearning (Yearning)
Trophy Bird (Hurting)
I choose her cage of gold (Choosing stage’s hold)
Trophy Bird, I’m hers (Trophy Bird)
-
⦑ Ari Nightingale ⦒
Laying in love, her favorite shade
Reading the stories that she made
They're all incomplete
There's no urgent need to rush eternity
Oh and I cherish the life up in the higher branches
-
I cherish the stage holding my cage
I play...
-
Oh, it’s a pleasure
Bringing leisure
To my betters
Audience of birds of prey
Their world a play
I hear them say:
⦑ Background Noble ⦒
Oh, such a treat to hear the tweets of Scarlet’s little thing!
⦑ The Baron ⦒
It’s a wonder she could muster any words to sing.
⦑ Ari Nightingale ⦒
The feeling never seems to ever truly fade away
This subtle fear I must adhere it seems to worsen feel coercing claws upon my rear
-
⦑ Adriel Ricci (Scarlet Nightingale) ⦒
I spin you around and I lift your chin
You are really quite the sight
My friend’s little caged songbird
Won’t you share your keys tonight?
-
⦑ Scarlet Nightingale (Adriel Ricci) {Ari Nightingale} ⦒
{It would be-}
Alas, tonight, she's my delight
I'd share her any other night
-
(Alas, a shame)
(For if I claimed you)
(I could show you every branch of fate)
I cannot wait!
-
Trophy bird, she'll do as she is told (Trophy bird, the brightest I am told)
Love hurts, I'll leave my mark on her (Lovebirds, I've heard)
Afterward, you'll have your turn with her (Afterward, I'll reap what's left of her)
{Trophy bird}
Tomorrow's hurt will sate my thirst (When I return)
