lyrics

Haven't you heard
The colorful bird
Singing its song
Trying to disturb me?

Oh, they were wrong
To sing your favorite song
So out of key
You might not recognize

Although I may seem
Overtime rearranged
No telling
What the future will do
Smoke and talking until
They will drink my body dry

Don't care that much
Crashing through the brush
Leaving a trail
Eating the wild carrots

You call those words
You'll talk and you'll talk
Each day without fail
Until I get itchy

And I do hope that
You might know the way home
I confess
I forgot the matches
It'll pain you to know
I hope this won't spoil your attitude

It's not how I meant to end

Will you come and find me
When I've been forgotten?
Will you come and find me
When I'm fallen and rotten?
Will you deal the cards right?
Whisper out of the darkness?
Will you play the cards right?
And claim all of my property?
Will you come crawling
Stumbling through the poison oak?
Will I come to breathe the smoke
That hurls me down the salty slope?
Will you come and find me
When I've got no pennies?
Not even two for my eyes
I lay in wait for sacred skies
Like the ground below you
Where you found the hidden oak
Passing glimpses fail you
Will you find the whole truth?

'Cause it's not going to be what you want it to be
No, It's not going to be what you want it to be
No, It's not going to be what you want it to be
