The Mockingbird
You had a smell of desperation, in your happiest photos
Sunken eyes ever-darting, in your happiest moments
A guard so far up, it whipped the faces of conversationalists
Reflecting all the life you see, you're patient, sensationalist
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him, over a diamond ring
And maybe it's the dope, that loosened that cold stare
'Cause only for a moment, thought something else was there
You know you chewed me up, and you spat me out
You know you were drowning, in your own self doubt
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him, over a diamond
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Fuck it
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him
Sunken eyes ever-darting, in your happiest moments
A guard so far up, it whipped the faces of conversationalists
Reflecting all the life you see, you're patient, sensationalist
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him, over a diamond ring
And maybe it's the dope, that loosened that cold stare
'Cause only for a moment, thought something else was there
You know you chewed me up, and you spat me out
You know you were drowning, in your own self doubt
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him, over a diamond
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Fuck it
And you climbed into the gutter, to find your love
You don't mind the hurting, don't mind the push and shove
And you didn't tell daddy, the mockingbird don't sing
You still prefer him
