I thought I knew the wind Alice sent it
This smoke and clay they wore me thin
We're spinning on a syllable that has the gall to bring the whole world down
We tape it up and wear it out
We let the blood soak through our calloused skin
Take all of my lies and tie the knots I can't do without
When I was a bird I could see where the moon had turned
The sky was alive and this wire of mine burned
And lying with these words the whole damn time
When did my young begin to slow me
Let me take my time while keeping pace
We break it down, the right and wrong the thorns and roots that grew before I knew you
Witness all these pretty colors learning to be
Hey this ain't no race
Here me through this dying day and all these words that were not meant for you
When I was a bird I could see where the moon had turned
The sky was alive and this wire of mine burned
And sleeping with the truth the whole damn time
I would kill for a night at the pines or a dawn at sea
I would kill for a night at the pines or a dawn at sea
I would kill for a night at the pines or a dawn at sea
When I was a bird I could see where the moon had turned
The sky was alive and this wire of mine burned
And sleeping next to you the whole damn time
