Paroles de Beautiful Birds Flying

Cutting off the light
Like I would an engine
Walking through the night like I've gone missing
Missing from the place I live
Missing from my brain I guess
Looking for some gold in another's hand
Looking for a life I could understand
There's violence in the ways I left
Violence in the way again
Even then, you come in nightly
Even in a dream I'd spun
Even in the summer sun
I could not run
Glistening or faded

I'm sitting where it all began
I have up on a promised land
But you were my friend
Aging, now I feel it
It's always slipping through my hands
It wasn't what I thought back then
When beautiful birds were flying
Beautiful birds were flying
Circles in the sky, I'm finding
My way with them
So I'm turning on the light when I let you in
I open up my mind with a new question
Now how could you possibly be?
Now what could you possibly need?
Nothing, now I face it

There's nothing on the other side
I want to live inside your life
With violence on my mind
When beautiful birds were flying
Beautiful birds were flying
Circles in the sky, I'm finding
My way with them
