Lyrics:
One small sound
One small word
In tongues all over the world
I said it
I said it
One small word
I said it
I didn't
I said it
I didn't
Tongues all over
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
I'll never hide my scars
One small sound
One small sight
One unsheathed knife must glint
In an alternate timeline's light
One rust-ridden blade juts out
Of a friendly moonstruck shape
To tear, tear terribly, terribly
Tear, tear terribly
The delicate crepe of night
Familiarity breeds
Indifference
Familiarity breeds discontent
Familiarity breeds
Indifference
Familiarity breeds discontent
My other time machine
A pungent, putrid brownish-green
November smile
Blandishing my two-timing door
One small sound
One small bite
One tomial tooth
One Loggerhead Shrike must skewer
My invertebrate doppelgänger
On barbed wire in a parallel universe
My tongue parallelly bleeds
One small drop
In a monthful of blood
In tongues all over the world
I said it, I didn't
It doesn't matter
What I said or didn't
Admit it
You were never going to get it
I was always gonna get it
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my
Familiarity breeds
Familiarity breeds
Not only is it thicker
Blood is stickier than water
Maybe that's relevant somehow
Can I explode now?

[@FirbolgVagabond]

Came from the TikTok about the shrike line and it’s even better in context. The rhythm of “One small sound, one small bite, one tomial tooth, one loggerhead shrike” is so satisfying to listen to

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! I love singing those lines! Not many songs mention the shrike’s tomial tooth haha

[@fluffydogboo1335]

Came from the line “blood is stickier than water - can I explode yet”

[@citra1885]

Ikr that line is so catchy and live rent-free in my head

[@oliversmith8186]

This song is very Cosmo Sheldrakey but also Fish in a Birdcagey, I love it so much and it scratches my brain so well that I know it's going to be on repeat

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I love those comparisons so much, it’s such high praise!

[@random_user828]

I know & like both of these and totally get what you mean :D

[@lilalino]

yesss i also thought of these two

[@s___akura]

AWW HELL YEAH

[@imjustlyth]

Fish in a birdcage mentioned!!!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I finally updated the captions on this!! Yikes, I didn't realize how off they were. Thank you for your patience!

[@crystalic_soup]

As an autistic i can confirm i have stimmed by listeing to the famed "one loggerhead shrike must skewer my invertibre doppelganger on barbed wire in a parallel universe" several times in a row it is VERY satisfying and your work is excellent,

[@sparkbirdmusic]

AWW thank you!! I’m getting shirts made with those lines, so it’s fun to hear them referred to as “famed” :D

[@sendie7645]

What does stimmed mean??

[@crystalic_soup]

@@sendie7645 stim/stimming/stimmed refers to a repetitive physical movement used for the sake of releasing energy, most commonly observed in neurodivergent people but neurotypical people do it as well! Like listening to a song on repeat, tapping your foot, kicking your legs, flapping your hands, popping your knuckles, or vocal stims where you repeatedly say a certain phrase song lyrics or any other thing,

[@literallyKoi]

this song feels so intentionally messy and im so here for it. when i listen i feel like im angry and stomping through the woods saying what i wish i could to someone who did me wrong

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Yessss that’s how I feel too, it’s so satisfying

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Except I mean writing it and performing it more than listening lol, but listening too!

[@ControversialOpinionGuy]

Feels more like a chaotic salsa to me

[@vivi_haze]

"I said it, I didn't It doesn't matter What I said or didn't Admit it You were never going to get it I was always gonna get it" This part ABSOLUTELY killed me. This song feels so angry, but calming at the same time. I am glad that I discovered this song and you. I have listened it on repeat like ten times now.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Omg thank you! This is SO nice!! :D

[@cyprusroze9304]

Just heard this on tiktok and had to come find it. It's very Cosmo Sheldrake but somehow more whimsical, I'm adore it. Excellent use of piano and strings, it's almost ethereal like living in a Fae Realm! it's so otherworldly!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Ahhh this is so sweet!! Thank you!

[@aethersprite7719]

Have you checked out Fish in a Birdcage?

[@magnolia_ember1]

"One unsheathed knife must glint In an alternate timeline's light One rust-ridden blade juts out Of a friendly moonstruck shape" the way the words are articulated is like dancing

[@sparkbirdmusic]

AWW thank you!! I love singing that part

[@thelastfuckersalad]

Y'know when a song is so good that you destroy your ears listening to it on repeat and this is one of them

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Omg protect your ear health!! (and thank you!!!)

[@nijirosbug1340]

The song feels like something in smth rlly cinematic , the tone shifts in the song is so good and gets me off gaurd each time

[@sparkbirdmusic]

It has a lot of distinct parts!

[@mysticxjuice]

The vibes this song has are immaculate

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Why thank you!

[@palterino]

the familarity breathes part is so addicting to listen to... my favorite is the "to tear, tear terribly" segment.... lyrical geniusness right there!! its been stuck in my head for weeks now, thank you for creating this masterpiece!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I love those parts too!! It’s a really satisfying song to perform. Thank you for giving it so much love, it means the world to me

[@alanamariyam]

This song gives me the crane wives vibes and I love it!!! I've been trying to find similar music and I'm so glad this showed up on my fyp

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! I feel so lucky that it showed up for you!

[@broomwielder]

This fits oddly well with the idea of Slay The Princess at times! Pretty cool. It's also just a wonderful song- something about this particular type of thing is just YES.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Someone did a Slay the Princess cosplay to it!!

[@d10s.l0v3r.c0z]

THIS IS LIKE IF YOU MIXED FISH IN A BIRDCAGE AND MIRACLE MUSICAL I AM OBSESSED

[@sparkbirdmusic]

YAY THANK YOU!

[@MrMoon8]

YES FR!

[@SirLuckySlime]

MIRACLE MUSICAL AND FISH IN A BIRDCAGE MENTIONED IN THE SAME SENTENCE?! I'VE STRUCK GOLD

This song scratches my brain in just the right way

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Yesss thank you!!

[@gemfire400]

Same

[@gemfire400]

I came here from Instagram short that I watched 20 times in a row

[@amnesiawashername7448]

I'll be honest: for me, this was originally one of those songs you listen to just for that one specific part. But I kept listening to it so much, the whole song eventually grew on me, and I can't stop listening to it now :') It's great!! I've even considered creating a character based on it haha

[@sparkbirdmusic]

That’s so great to hear!! I know what you mean, I feel similarly about a lot of songs that I originally hear from short videos. I’m so glad it grew on you!

[@SunniiReii]

Been looking for more music like this, I am ASCENDING

[@sparkbirdmusic]

This is so sweet! 🥹 thank youuuuu

[@crowarctia]

I love how bird-themed your songs are. The lines and tones are so good, I love that aside from the topic of bad experiences there are also references about shrikes and their feeding habits and didn’t fail to mention their tomial tooth too which adds a lot to the song. Definitely will be sticking around jsjdjdsk

[@sparkbirdmusic]

:D I’m so glad someone mentioned the tomial tooth!!

[@letmesleep7370]

I have an OC that literally travels to different universes as a way to escape his opposite- and this song fits so well-

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Oooh that does sound very fitting

[@dragonhoffele1612]

This song feels to me like a character arguing with themselves in the mirror “I said it, I didn’t, I said it, I didn’t”, their reflection desperately if not angrily trying to convince them to break free of something or someone, a situation that’s slowly becoming worse as they refuse to see it for what it truly is.They are grappling with the reality that their situation isn’t what they want it to be, and slowu throughout the song, the situation grows worse and worse for them, and they are weighed down by their grappling internally and finally at the end of something even more profound and tragic due to their circumstances, they return to the mirror, it’s cracked “Can I explode now?” Like there’s something about this song, songs with specific named birds have something baked into them that is untold and wonderful.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I love all of this interpretation, and the mirror imagery! I definitely see those lyrics as indicating a conflict between the narrator and themself. It's so exciting to me as a songwriter to see someone really picking up what I'm putting in the song! :D

[@kcdeara8346]

saw a reel about a perfect song for your traumatized bird loving character. Perfect for my dnd character! What a lovely song, you have done amazing!!! So many comments with comparisons are so correct, Id like to add a comparison to Sweet Dreams in Sea Minor, they are both so whimsical!!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

1. THANK YOU so much, 2. I need to check that out immediately!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Oh my god, this song is so fascinating, I can’t believe I’m just now hearing it for the first time

[@kcdeara8346]

@@sparkbirdmusicHappy you like it! The entire album is fascinating and tells a story, I’d also recommend murders, labyrinth and the mind electric!! Listening to this again, totally going to be on repeat :D I’ve gotta check out the rest of your stuff

[@journey_to_chaos7313]

I am such a huge bird nerd, and I’ve never been more excited about a bird reference in a song cause it’s so specific I love it so much omg

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Yaaay this makes me so happy, thank you for listening

[@Snowpuff55]

the beat switches in this song is immaculate, it just brings flavor to an already beautiful song.

[@hahaheart1]

The song loops so well, for a moment I hadn't realised it was and was like. huh this song is longer than I thought, ah well.

[@DollFaceThornback]

This has been playing on loop for a good five hours now, I've been dancing around my room to it off and on, and now I'm gonna sleep to it. I will switch to another song eventually, but rn this is my jam and I will refuse to listen to anything else.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

AWWWW wow, I’m so honored!!

[@wherearetheavocados7012]

"Familiarity breeds indifference/discontent" one sentence or phrase from a lyric that sums the entire meaning of the song or resonates with me will grab my attention. Add some catchy beat, and I'll definitely be hooked 🤘 definitely i love this song!!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! I’m so glad it grabbed you :D

[@TallestLeo]

this artist needs more attention and listeners! this song is so smooth and I cannot stop listening. all the love and support to ya, Stephan!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! :) I’m so grateful for the support!

[@amastelaire]

"Can i explode now?" Is oddly relatable

[@Misha_my_boy]

The "I never hide my scars" lines is so relatable for me due to me being extremely clumsy sometimes and everyday I'm always showing a scar or two due to where they are

[@sparkbirdmusic]

That is so real, I definitely have a number of ADHD-related scars

[@Jade-nx7xh]

My recommended is kind today. This is a very magical song. Familiar, yet distant. Gives off an amazing vibe. You've got talet man, run with it.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! I’m running as fast as I can haha

[@roachsprouts]

I know I already commented once but I just want to comment again because this song has slowly moved up to my #1 favorite, I just can’t get over the faint sound of birdsong during the “one small sound, one small bite, one tomial tooth, one loggerhead shrike” part it’s just so weirdly empowering, like your wings finally grew and you’re no longer trapped by the chains trauma binds you to. You can finally thrive despite everything people have done to hurt you, and that alone is vengeance enough. It’s so comforting to me. I can finally learn how to love myself again

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I hadn't even thought about the sound you're talking about as birdsong, but I totally hear what you mean!

[@SilverChicken64]

This is definetly a song I'd listen to on repeat until I get sick of it, but I'll try not to let it get to that point. I love it too much to lose it.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Awwwww

[@suntheclumsycat]

when i am blessed with the mental capacity for animation again i am so making a short animation with the bit at 2:49 its on loop in my head forever

[@HarpyMutt]

I'm amazed by the composition of this song! The warbling composition, the chosen instruments, the shrike line (a favorite since shrikes are so interesting to me), the ending! Phenomenal!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you for these lovely words! I get the sense that you’re a writer yourself :)

[@Coolingtulip]

The shrike analogy is MWAH. Bird refs make me go crazy 🙏

[@Willow_I_Guess]

Found this at random while scrolling through Yt shorts, pretty nice song.

[@red5_skywalker]

I got here from the "whuch fandom claims this song" vid on Instagram - fir the record its the Life Series, this feels very BigB/Cleo duo or very Martyn/Ren duo!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

So many people are saying Life Series!!

[@spectre_tea]

this for renchanting is so real... "One rust-ridden blade juts out of a friendly moonstruck shape to tear, tear terribly, terribly, tеar, tear terribly"

[@revaartchild9245]

I can totally see myself listening to this often. It makes me want to draw and dance at the same time

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I want to see those dance-drawings! :D

[@Jestir66]

incredible. Theres so many things happening in this song. Really fun to listen to. a real toe tapper as they say

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you!! This means a lot to me ❤️

oh no ever since iI found this song I cant stop listening to it.. in this face familiarity doesn't breed discontent.

[@stuffy5851]

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS SONG! It gave me inspiration for my next dnd character. Well actaully I'm using 3 of your songs for this dnd character. But her backstory is basically using the words literally. The base of her backstory is that her and her twin goes into a crypt where they find a cursed tome. When they first get the crypt she hears a voice in her head hence the "one small sound" gets possessed and says the words to release the entities powers hence the "one small word...I said it, I didn't, I said it...". And then so on and so on. Hopefully my party members don't see this hahaha. I just need to write her backstory out more and give her a name. She's going to be an owlin as well, so your album extra fits for her. Thanks again!

[@plswatchinfinitytrain]

So good. I like when the melody goes dinding dong dingedengon dengdon.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

LOL I’m trying to imagine which part that is

[@CrimsonCreates]

The dedication you have to continue reading comments up to now! I applaud that. As an animator and artist, i plan on using parts of this song for future videos! Its veryy catchy and many lyrics remind me of my own ocs

[@sparkbirdmusic]

The fact that people continue to comment really means so much to me! Since this some came out I’m smiling more than I have in years (and I smiled already, just now it’s noticeably more). I’m excited to see how you use parts of the song!!

[@birdboy__]

This song feels like taking back control

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Ooh I love that

Whoa! This is literally so cool. I love how there are a ton of differing styles and rhythms but it still stays cohesive. The instrumentals are really awesome aswell.

this is one of my favorite songs. it's uplifting in a sad way and it makes me feel as if i'm floating. it's soft but powerful and it's like poetry. this is a masterpiece and you're a lyrical genius. your voice is so soothing but also makes me feel on edge with the song theme and meaning. this is such a lovely song

[@sparkbirdmusic]

[@Brjdget]

My cousin said this song reminds him of me and i initially didnt care much for it but it quickly grew on me and became one of my favorites. It amazing how the sounds come together in this song, its genuinely beautiful. It resonates in me with a sort of hope yet uncertainty for what is to come with acceptance of the past, thats just how i feel about it though. Amazing song!!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts!! And I can relate to your experience with it, because I typically need to listen to songs at least a few times to like them. I'm so glad it grew on you!

[@Confused_Waterbag]

This is my new favourite song! No other poetry has explained so much of my life. For once my memory of times when for example someone tried to murder me (I can't help but think of this songs many meanings, including the literal) brought a smile because my appreciation for this song is stronger than my repulse of those images. I've come to love art, song and literature especially when each line bears as much weight as they do in this song. Thank you for sharing this :D Btw, Rebecca DeMoss and Chad Lowe did a splended job, these strings don't tie straight.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you so much for this really thoughtful comment! I think I can relate to the feeling you’re describing, because this song makes me so happy even though it’s about really dark memories. It’s like putting it all out there in this way feels like a kind of justice is being served. Poetic justice!

[@AtrocityGuide]

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Yesss that makes me so so happy, thank you

[@ameliadouglas6938]

Absolutely love this song. 'blood it stickier than water' is a wonder of a line. And really any song with a shrike reference is enough to make me go feral. I'm sure if you played this to some shrikes with the correct inclination they would probably be willing to impale someone for you.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

My friend shared this song with me, and i can’t get the idea of a FNAF animatic with this song out of my head, the words just feel like the story, a mess but so horrible. The song itself is wonderfully majestic, it feels like nature. Its words are dark in places and it feels harsh but the instruments make it feel so soft despite the seemingly annoyed words. It feels chaotic and beautiful all at once, with a mesh of random styles all in it, different delivery for the words all over it. It reminds me of Ship In a Bottle by FIN, and I can’t explain how. I love it

Finding this due to a fandom. Was the best thing that’s happened all week. I love it so much. Like the part were they sing “One Loggerhead Shrike must skewer. My invertebrate doppelgänger. On barbed wire in a parallel universe” and how these a small gap between “strike” and “must”. That lest it work with the list above while flowing into the next line. Not even to mention the instrument. That allows for the choppy words (not should the actual name for it) to work so well. I’m going to have a love hate relationship with how many times I’m gonna put this on loop. Gonna become a earworm.

[@sparkbirdmusic]

The vocals at the start I really enjoy too, I think they’re present throughout but that layering of “one small sound, one small word” at the beginning has a very ghostly sense to me. Overall this song is a new favourite, and I’m so excited to take a look at more of your music!

[@sparkbirdmusic]

It’s so exciting to get this really specific (positive!) feedback! Thank you for leaving such a thoughtful comment, I’m so glad the song resonates with you enough to play it more than once :)

[@Fungal_Leech]

I just wanna say you are SUCH a real one for liking most if not all of the comments. It's gotta be so tedious especially considering how many they are so you're amazing for making everyone feel seen regardless. This is an amazing song man, I've been listening to it on loop for a while now :)

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Omg thank you, honestly the comments make my day (over and over and over), I’m so grateful for them

Found this one on TikTok. I was curious and I wasn't disappointed! And where I live, mountains are craggy, lots of variety in terms of trees and terrain, and this song gives me vibes of someone taking a hike through it. I'm talking harsh terrain known for cutting up feet to planes and forests

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Ooh, that’s really visceral imagery, I love it. Thank you for listening!

No f*cking clue what's going on in this song, but I'm stimming none the less

[@painsickle3346]

This is genuinely so good!!! Every year for my applications a musician will be sacrificed (will be listened to on repeat for a month to keep me sane) :33 (but genuinely keep going this is so good)

[@sparkbirdmusic]

:D It’s an honor to be sacrificed!!

I came from a reel I saw of the artist talking about how the Good Omens fandom claims this song and I was fascinated by it... I would like very much someone to do an animation with it, it fits perfect (especially the ending) and the song is very beautiful and catchy, I just love the vibe ahhh😭🫶💥💕

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Thank you so much!! I’ve seen some Good Omens fan art and at least one edit but no animations yet!

[@zeroguardianoftheomniverse7082]

Dude this fits me so well!

[@laetitiaklinkhammer192]

THIS IS SO GOOD WAAAA, i usually avoid this genre of music because it makes me think of my past but honestly, for this banger I'm willing to heal so i can be able to listen to more of your music 🙏🙏

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I'm so glad you listened and commented! This song was part of my healing process... And my new song ("Sparkbird") is way more uplifting and hopeful, so maybe that one will help balance things out!

[@rokki-road]

I’k gonan use this song for a warriors animatic. I found this song from the “blood is stickier than water” TikTok and this song scratches such a great itch in my brain😊

[@sparkbirdmusic]

Ooooh, I'm excited to see it!!

[@saladarmy2773]

[@Glitch-Witch]

dude this song is great, WAY too underrated

[@sparkbirdmusic]

ty for boosting, it's going a little farther every day!

[@jarpout]

i think i need an oc animatic to “one small sound, one small sight, one unsheathed light must glint in an alternate timeline’s light. one rust ridden blade juts out of a friendly moonstruck shape” this song is going to eat me ALIVEEEEE and i’ll be delighted as it does

[@sparkbirdmusic]

AWW, I’m really glad it made an impact :D

[@thejadeddragon7413]

This song sounds like it acts itself out and is an unraveling poem of that makes any sense at all 💛

[@sparkbirdmusic]

I get it! ❤️
