Clovis’ Son Lyrics by Josh Pyke

Only Sparrows

0

And I was in the corner
I was taking my medicine
And you were in the corner too
But I didn't wanna share it with you
How are we ever gonna get any better
If we're always in the same room?
We read she pulled out the tendons
And she set them on the river
Now we know that it isn't true

We are only ever
Little sparrows on a mountain side
When the wind came up
And it blew away her footing
And it forced her into flight
So how are we ever gonna get any better
Under cover of the same night?
We read she pulled out the tendons
And she set them on the river
Now we know that isn't right

I'm going to buy a sharper set of knives

So whose side are you on?
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
Their mothers bed to lay them on
Whose side are you on?

Caught up in the eye of
Every storm that passes through
If history is beholden to
A very different kind of truth
Then how are we ever gonna get any better
If we're always in the same room?
We read she pulled out the tendons
And she set them on the river
Now we know that isn't true

I'm going to buy a keener set of lies

And whose side are you on?
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
Their mothers bed to lay them on
Whose side are you on?

And maybe there has always been
Something in the corner hiding
The feeling as a child we had
There's something in between the air

And even on the coldest night
I generate a heat inside me
And even with the tendon's cut
There's something in the corner hiding
In between the air

And whose side are you on?
To set me loose like Clovis' sons
Their mothers bed to lay them on

Whose side are you on?
Whose side are you on?
Whose side are you on?

I was in the corner
I was taking my medicine
And you were in the corner too
But I didn't wanna share it with you
