Bird Never Flies
How can I turn away from your gun?
How can I stay here where others would run?
And cast the blame
I fan a dying flame
All of my secrets breathe life to my lies
All of my thoughts like the ocean they slide
Along the edge
They linger on the banks, in search of refuge
Darling, don’t cry
(I won’t give you up)
Don’t you know why
(I won’t give you up)
This bird never flies
There’s night at the end of this heavenless day
There’s night at the end that will show me a way
I tell myself
We may still be saved
Darling, don’t cry
(I won’t give you up)
Don’t you know why
(I won’t give you up)
This bird never flies
