lyrics

LITTLE BIRD

You close your eyes like a sad little flower
all alone in the sand and the wind
You dug into him like a bird in the snow
but his eyes fell away, down a road
And in the end, he wouldn't speak he only stared

Your daddy was like a shrine,
made of stone, made of gold, with no heart
Your mama was like a ghost,
wrapped around her own life, tucked away
And you would shine, just like a dime lost in the couch
And you would save your bitter tears for someone else

Well you grew up too fast so you act like a child
And the scars are too deep to be found
And the harder you pull, well the further they run
Don't you know they're as hungry as you?
And you would dream, of angel wings left in the snow
And you would dream, of angel wings to bring you home
