My yellow bird / how bright you glow
My yellow bird / you fly alone
My yellow bird / you say the word /
and I’ll come help you lift the load
Yellow bird / yellow bird where did you go now?
Yellow bird / you have gone so you will grow now
Yellow bird / you have left me on my own now
And we’ll both move on / and we’ll both grow strong
Tell me how you fly alone / yellow brd / yellow brd
Yellow bird / where did you go now?

Backyard Fantasy

Take my hand
You understand // we went way too far too far
Things have changed // We’re not the same I am better than I was
On my own I’ve made new homes with places in my head
Things have grown there’s room to roam // Over all that’s left unsaid
Take it for granted
Seeds have been planted in this backyard fantasy
we’re not going back // But I’ll leave my bag on your front lawn take the key
So say what’s on my mind for once// and I’ll leave high and dry
Leave the key and bid farewell // I’ll find my peace of mind
Can’t take back how it felt when I // was tossed up like a dime
Retracing all my steps I find // you’ve used up all my time
No I, No I, I’ve found my peace of mind

Went Too Far
06:26

I went too far // but it’s not far enough
I want to see what you saw when you went numb for us
I opened the door but then I caught myself
I take your arm now and show you my hell
I’m caught in between // I’m caught down in the well
The water’s high but there’s a window
You tossed me around and I was never found
I say too much and it drags you down
(drags you down x2 // Ain’t it funny how)
I went too far // but it’s not far enough
I wanna see what you saw / when you went numb for us
I opened the door but then I caught myself
You left me lying // lyin’ to myself
Cause’ I’m chasing shadows in my sleep
Look at me now / watch me spit out all my greed
Cause’ I’m always too hungry to be filled up by nothing
A thing you can’t face
I always want something

Anesthetic Lullaby
05:14
|
|||
|
So I’ll turn off the lights // I’ll sing my lullaby
And when we’re laying side by side // You’re the first to close your eyes
I can’t get enough // Always reaching for your touch
You’re pulling back the distance loud // You take a pill and numb it out
Oh please don’t go to sleep
I want you to stay up with me oh
We’ll talk about how our days went
Talk about our relationship
‘But don’t oh ohn’t go to sleep’
I can’t see where you are // Always wrapped up in your scars
And smoke it stings / it burns our lungs
But through the haze you’ll show me love
‘And you’ll be closer to me’
Cause it’s the moments that break me
I need you too look // I need you to see
I want you to hold me
It’s never safe with you // I can’t get close enough to you
Without the taste of poison in my blood
Swallow it down or its too much // without it now Im lying to myself
You never show me love / without a little help

Home Is An Airplane
04:07

|
Never told me it would feel this way // twenty-something changes on its way // losing my friends, can I go home again? // could not predict it would unfold to such a bitter end
Home is an airplane, I fly in the blue // lost in both cities, the feeling is mutual
Love is not something they will warn you about // what it is to my heart, it ain't to my self doubt
If you go keep going // if you go keep going, keep going my way
