Songbird, Pt. 2
Do you still see yourself back there
In your dreams
Do you still find yourself writhing
Tear your sheets
Go back to sleep
There's never any words to write
The songbird sighs
We were so young for so long
How wide our eyes
But now I'm tired
Will you still be my best friend
When there's nothing left
Forgotten feeling in the springtime
In the growing leaves
Oh, stay with me
With branches splitting open my head
Alive again
I'm arraigned in the autumn light
Do I have to die to come back alive
The song was stolen from my mouth
With steady aim I shot the songbird down
I didn't mean no harm
Still my beating heart
I'm an anvil stuffed with down
Lightning with no sound
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
In your dreams
Do you still find yourself writhing
Tear your sheets
Go back to sleep
There's never any words to write
The songbird sighs
We were so young for so long
How wide our eyes
But now I'm tired
Will you still be my best friend
When there's nothing left
Forgotten feeling in the springtime
In the growing leaves
Oh, stay with me
With branches splitting open my head
Alive again
I'm arraigned in the autumn light
Do I have to die to come back alive
The song was stolen from my mouth
With steady aim I shot the songbird down
I didn't mean no harm
Still my beating heart
I'm an anvil stuffed with down
Lightning with no sound
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
We were so young for so long
