Paper Forest (Birds) Itunes Exlcusive Track

The birds were falling limbless from the sky
Falling in nobody's eyes but mine
The birds were closing in again, I tried
To fight them back and find my way outside
Squinting like a newborn in the light
I walked for like an hour, maybe five
You're the only reason that I might find my way
Out here tonight

I came here when the world was very dry
The road was dry as paper so I typed
And in the accident of hands producing lines
I hope to clear the birds away and give them flight
And when you clear the birds away
You see the sky
And when you see the sky
You know which way to tread
And I think you're the only reason that I might might might
Illuminate the text
So I can see to where the grass is really bright bright bright
Meet you there and know which way to step

Oh my love you're always further than I'd like
Always moving just ahead of me like tide
And it isn't that I want to fall behind
And it isn't that I don't know how to love
But the world is made of paper so I type
I write but I could never write enough
Now I can see to where the grass is really bright bright bright
But I don't know if I will ever make it out

And all the birds were falling limbless from the sky
Falling in nobody's eyes but mine
And I'm squinting like a newborn in the light
Squinting like a newborn in the light
Of a paper forest starting to ignite
Of a paper forest burning out of sight
And I think that you're the only reason
You're the reason, you're the reason
The reason for the fire

Let these paper forests burn
And burn until they're down
Maybe then the birds will hurt
Emerge and lead you out
Let these paper forests burn
And burn until they're down
Maybe then the birds will hurt
Emerge and lead you out
