i hate the west
black birds like words on a phone line
Like a gunshot they flew off at once
I started crying. Been doing that sometimes
I was surprised to find out where I was
Ordinary starts having too much meaning
If I go In that hole I'll be done
You were there a hovering ceiling
Then it all
burst blackbirds burst blackbirds burst blackbirds
burst blackbirds burst blackbirds burst blackbirds
(6 times, slight pause)
From a gun
Why does everything wrong taste like honey
Why do people sound so much like sand
Why am I tired except when I'm running
Why was it so cold so cold so cold
holding your hand
I hate the west and rest that impress me
Crumbling stone bone blazing sun
I looked down on what's left of Cody
Town ended up just like everything that I've loved
Some one's under my foot I crush em
Later wonder why who it was
I was sure before you went you would phone me
You only (slight pause) phoned your favorite one
I've been living cheap and living ugly
The cracks widen when I'm with that guy
Who's left? Who mailed me the money?
(slight pause) Ate the biggest piece of meat I could buy
For a day I thought it was over
That one day I thought it was mine
For a day I thought it was over
Now it's starting up starting up one more time.
Why does everything wrong taste like honey
Why do people sound so much like sand
Why am I tired except when I'm running
At the end at the end at the end
why'd you phone him
Like words black birds on a black line
Like a gunshot they flew off at once
I looked down on what's left of Cody
Town ended up just like everything that I love
The wrong things all taste like honey
Who's left? Who mailed all that money?
There's no sky no ceiling above me
It all burst blackbirds burst blackbirds burst blackbirds
Burst blackbirds burst blackbirds burst blackbirds (7 times)
from a gun
Burst blackbirds burst blackbirds burst blackbirds
Burst blackbirds burst blackbirds (4 times)
From a gun
... From a gun
