Bird in the House
I want to hold you
Stranger
Bird in the house
It was the open
Window
That called you in
Out of the branches
Steaming
From a midday rain
And now you're anxious
Awkward
And all out of place
I know you're only gonna leave me shrieking dirty words
And twisting towards the light
I don't have much I gotta do this weekend
Maybe you should just sleep here tonight
I had my eyes closed
Rusting
Book in my lap
Beneath the distant
Rumble
Of an outbound plane
And then I heard you
Moving
Looking for space behind the curtain
Listen
Baby just wait
I know the setting doesn't leave you breathless
Furniture and cold fluorescent light
Hey I'm not asking you to stay for breakfast
Anyway I'm tired let's not fight
I know you're trying to keep your shit together
Everyone is twisting towards a light
Just let me run my fingers through your feathers
Once before you turn away
One before you turn away and fly
Stranger
Bird in the house
It was the open
Window
That called you in
Out of the branches
Steaming
From a midday rain
And now you're anxious
Awkward
And all out of place
I know you're only gonna leave me shrieking dirty words
And twisting towards the light
I don't have much I gotta do this weekend
Maybe you should just sleep here tonight
I had my eyes closed
Rusting
Book in my lap
Beneath the distant
Rumble
Of an outbound plane
And then I heard you
Moving
Looking for space behind the curtain
Listen
Baby just wait
I know the setting doesn't leave you breathless
Furniture and cold fluorescent light
Hey I'm not asking you to stay for breakfast
Anyway I'm tired let's not fight
I know you're trying to keep your shit together
Everyone is twisting towards a light
Just let me run my fingers through your feathers
Once before you turn away
One before you turn away and fly
