Song Of Birds Lyrics

I’m still learning how to untie love

And I’ve pulled apart almost everyone

But teeth and claws and all unwanted dreams

They’re still binding you to me

I don’t blame you

I don’t mind

The way I’ll forget about you in time

This morning I awoke to the sound of birds

And I understood all their words

They spoke of the sky and tales of when

They’d dance on clouds and fight the wind

And all those sides of you I’ve seen

I don’t know which to believe

I much prefer being alone

With the birds and their songs

Cuz they won’t leave

I remember winter in Nemours

And making love on your bedroom floor

Those memories won’t ever leave

They keep on coming back to me

Love is like a host

It swears to provide

But the favor expires in time

Last night I dreamed you came back

Your sweet blue eyes, they had turned to black

You were smiling, bruised, and scratched

You’d been had

And now you’ve gone bad

And all those sides of you I’ve seen

Which would you have me believe

I am trying to prefer being alone

With the birds
