Birds Lyrics by Benn

Z.2

0

He was the kind of man who never knew his place
Was broken long before he ever knew his name
He was the kind of man that always took the blame
The things he'd done when others pulled the strings

He was the kind of man who'd never turn away
And he was caught inside the moths eternal flame
Oh little birds I really want to hear you sing
It's been so long and I can't stand your silent beaks

We know the words, you know, we just don't want to sing
The things you've done will never warrant melody

He was the kind of man who always seemed so strong
And every life he made would sap his youth and love
And he was the kind of man who was terrified to die
Yet every night he did when he turned out the light

He was the kind of man who lived so selfishly
All alone, the stones, the gun, the dark, the sea
And he was the kind of man who never fed the birds
And now they watch him end and hear his final words


Oh little birds I really need to hear you sing
It's been so long the dark devoured Everything

We know the words, you know, we just don't want to sing
The mark you left could never warrant anything

And he was the kind of man who lived inside his head
A world so deep that light could not survive down there
And he was the kind of man who killed the ones he'd touch
And now he's gone the world can wash away the dust
