Birds on a Wire Lyrics by HAVVK

Cause & Effect

2019

We were two birds on a wire
Watching the world going by
When I try to speak
Are you listening?
Do you want to hear me scream?
We were two knives in a drawer
Sheltered and waiting for more
When you pick me up
Will you cut yourself?
Can we fill this room with blood?
If you wanted to save me
You should’ve knocked on my door
And if you wanted it so bad
You should’ve asked me some more
Always one eye on the door
Always one foot on the floor
When you look around
Can you find yourself?
Is this really what you want?
If you wanted to save me
You should’ve knocked on my door
And if you wanted it so bad
You should’ve asked me some more
Tried and tried in the black of night
To run and hide. To run and hide
Tried and tried in the black of night, (I hear you, I see you)
To run and hide. To run and hide. (I hear you, I see)
I sit alone on the wire
Watching the world going by
I can feel the wind
Underneath my wings
And it’s telling me to fly
If you wanted to save me
You should’ve knocked on my door
And if you wanted it so bad
You should’ve asked me some more
If you wanted to save me
You should’ve knocked on my door
And if you wanted it so bad
You should’ve asked me some more
