Paroles de Songbird

songbird with your bones of dust your wiry notes, your cage of rust sing your sweet sad song for us sing for us shadows with your quiet dread your sins unspoke, your guilt unsaid cast your shield across our bed across our bed fortune with your bitter race your trembling poise, your bumbling grace turn to us your smiling face turn to us whiskey with your endless sorrow love me today, curse me tomorrow give us your courage now to borrow give to us songbird with your bones of dust your wiry notes, your cage of rust sing your sweet sad song for us
