Birds

There's some things i don't have now

Some things i don't talk about

These things are between myself and i

In my thick skull the joker hides



There's consequences i'm scared to taste

Cold hard truths i can't face

These days are different than the past

Reflections change in the looking glass



And everywhere i look there's something to learn

A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn

A hatful of quarters and a naked song

Don't answer the question of where we belong



How come birds

Don't fall from the sky when they die?

How come birds

Always look for a quiet place to hide

These words

Can't explain what i feel inside?

Like birds i need a quiet place to hide



These independent moves i make

This confidence i try to fake

You can hear the beating of my heart

But not a feather falling in the dark



And everything i hear never makes any sense

Another old prophet perched on the fence

A cupful of pencils and a self help guru

Don't answer the question of what i am to you
