Bird Brains Lyrics by Anthonie Tonnon

Successor

2015

[Verse 1]
Bird brained
Lanky and quiet
Feeling outrun
So you come here
To the skate park where they flock around William's car
You know that he's weird and old
But he makes you believe
All this growing is gonna turn you into something
[Chorus]
Your bones are pushing against your skin
Thinning it out
You sort of believe it won't stop
Until you can glide
[Verse 2]
Away from the kids with growth spurts behind their eyes
Smiles from teachers reach in places you can't find
Now when you're taking off from the big ramp
You look higher each time
[Bridge]
When you got that concussion
You felt so tired
They said you shouldn't be sleeping
But William didn't mind
He let you rest in the car
Got out his scissors for chop
Said you're gonna go further than they are, son
[Verse 3]
And you dreamed of wings
Perching in his open hands
Taking off from the lip and never needing to land it
Taking off from the lip and never needing to land it
Taking off from the lip and never needing to land it
