bitter birdie

She held it all together
For such a long long time
But then she lost her audience
And promptly lost her mind
Let it all fall down to pieces
Everything fell apart
Much too tired to get hired
Forget mend her broken heart

Bitter birdie
Not yet thirty
But tired of it all
Now that the world's all so connected
Her song it feels so small

La di la di la di la di la di la di lay
Watch it all go up in flames
La di la di la di la di la di lee
Throw the ashes in the sea

Bitter birdie, bitter birdie
Bitter birdie, bitter birdie

If a tree falls in the forest
When nobody's around
How is anybody certain
That it even makes a sound?

I shouted loud into the void
But it never shouted back
World's on fire
Preach to the choir
The train's all off its track

Bitter birdie
Not yet thirty
But tired of it all
Now that the world's all so connected
Her song it feels so small

Bitter birdie sings

La la la la la la la di lay
Watch it all go up in flames
The vultures come to play
Once the rest have gone away
And la la la la la la di lee
Throw the ashes in the sea
Rebuild it all with me
Put back together properly
