Kite on the Roof, Waiting for Wind
by Moth Static
“A paper kite on a roof, waiting for wind. It's the most hopeful thing we'd done to that point, and I think you can hear us grinning.”

Lyrics
Paper kite upon the roof Sleeping still, the wind's aloof String wound tight around my hand Waiting for the night to land Rise up soft, catch the air Float a little, I'll be there Rise up soft, catch the air Stay close, I'm right here City lights are glowing wide Windows warm on every side One small breath comes down the street Lifts the tail and lifts my feet Rise up soft, catch the air Float a little, I'll be there Rise up soft, catch the air Stay close, I'm right here Higher now above the town Gently pulling, never down Hold the line and let it play Dawn is only a breath away Rise up soft, catch the air Float a little, I'll be there Rise up soft, catch the air Stay close, I'm right here Rise up soft I'm right here
