Bird Flu Lyrics by Hopesfall

Magnetic North

2006

[Verse 1]
I'm a killjoy
Even offstage I'm plastered
Memories of a sex stained flower
On the wall of your room
I need a view, I need a few
People around me think they are California bound
We're turning blue and yellow
We don't make a sound
I've sunk into cold floors
Half naked and always stumbling, stumbling

[Pre-Chorus]
You are to me
However you want to be

[Chorus]
As long as we're machines (we will lose)
We are just a dream (the unknown)
No ordinary tease
Of another life
Come find
We ought to be
How we used to see
A more human and extraordinary love

[Verse 2]
Hush up that gypsy queen in the back of magazines
Crush the pills
Flip it over
Rip this oxy
Fuck alter boy sensitivity
Make it numb, make it numb to learn
We can't get far enough
From nights of
Dancing on the streets like we paved them ourselves
And now we've learned to chase our liquor with disaster

[Bridge 1]
Palm readers never let you know
We're all ribbon chasers
Without ribbons of our own
Palm readers never let you go
We're all ribbon chasers
Without ribbons of our own

[Refrain]
Under the watchful eye of a dirty bird
Under the watchful eye of a dirty bird

[Bridge 2]
My chemical companion
Can't you read my mind?
You want some attention
But I'm tired of it tonight
My chemical companion
Can't you read my mind?
You want some attention
But I'm tired of it tonight

[Chorus]
As long as we're machines (we will lose)
We are just a dream (the unknown)
No ordinary tease
Of another life
Come find
We ought to be
How we used to see
A more human and extraordinary love

[Outro]
I'm tired, I'm tired of this unusual disaster
I'm tired, I'm tired (we will lose)
I'm tired, I'm tired of this unusual disaster
