lyrics
Followed your boots through all the metal doors
Climbed out the window for the seventieth floor
Just to look down
But you weren’t around
Is this the battlefield where you let loose
Had all the stars and planets following you
While I stood my ground
Till on the rings of Saturn I fell down
I got my wings around me that’ll fly me high
I got your painted letters threw them up in the sky
You’re such a lonely bird
You stole all of my words
I’m dreaming of sleeping but I’m thinking bout how to lie
Is this the telescope you found me through
While I was swinging to the top of the moon
I could see you, standing in the trees
You found yourself another one like me
I got my wings around me that’ll fly me high
I got your painted letters threw them up in the sky
You’re such a lonely bird
You stole all of my words
I’m dreaming of sleeping but you’re never around
I thought about calling
But you’re not in my town
Is this the howling tree
For a bird like me
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord, You got me thinking bout how to lie
Climbed out the window for the seventieth floor
Just to look down
But you weren’t around
Is this the battlefield where you let loose
Had all the stars and planets following you
While I stood my ground
Till on the rings of Saturn I fell down
I got my wings around me that’ll fly me high
I got your painted letters threw them up in the sky
You’re such a lonely bird
You stole all of my words
I’m dreaming of sleeping but I’m thinking bout how to lie
Is this the telescope you found me through
While I was swinging to the top of the moon
I could see you, standing in the trees
You found yourself another one like me
I got my wings around me that’ll fly me high
I got your painted letters threw them up in the sky
You’re such a lonely bird
You stole all of my words
I’m dreaming of sleeping but you’re never around
I thought about calling
But you’re not in my town
Is this the howling tree
For a bird like me
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord, You got me thinking bout how to lie
