lyrics

songbirds cry to their mothers and i don't see what the use is to cry to a mother anyway
cowards came in your house while you slept
when you look down the line no surprise there
cut out your dear heart to wear
eyes reminder of what we all doubt
what happens outside of tight and stretched out is just age on the back of your neck

plain cities' boys they don't change anytime, anywhere
teeth in tongue, never liked getting the short end of this
are you haunted by some strange realm of the mind?
stretch out through the dark, colors unseeable by eye

you, my love, were holed up in the heart
more like a bad joke in the mouth
a foul taste that you dearly spit out
more like the lines you choose right now
more like the lies you choose right now
more like the lines
for the last time

songbirds cry to their mothers and i don't see what the use is to cry for what was coming anyway
brave kids came at the time it was best
took all that you had, but forgot the rest
cut out your dear heart to wear
eyes reminder of what we all doubt
what happens outside of tight and stretched out is just age on the back of your neck
