Broken Bird (M:FANS) Lyrics by John Cale

M:FANS

2016

Like a broken winged, like a broken bird
She senses every damn thing that's near her
And nothing in the light of day could see how
Her happiness faded away

Her happiness faded away with the night
Away with the dawn
As the sea faring galleon
The fish and the heron
Walking stiffly, with the stalker oblivion
Keep me alive in the stars at night
And they shine at you like the way

Broken wing on the bird
A broken wing he did everything to break
Only reading, reading the wrong signs
And thinking, hell where's the harm in just saying
Could it be I'm just saying the same thing again
And, ladies and gentlemen, carry me down to Hell
Lend me, lend me your fires
'Cause I'm broken winged
Could be anything, anything
Any day, any time, any year or month
Satisfied, are you satisfied?
Now that you're satisfied
You done it again
