By Surprise Lyrics by Mello Crum

Other Birds

[Verse 1]
A black low-cut dress, your eyes way up there
Your soul a red hot mess, just like your wavy hair
We must’ve agreed that I don’t pay no mind
‘Cause you for sure don’t care
She’s glowing like she’s getting sunkissed right by the lake
She told me that she ain’t a fan of the Y2K
Had my ears pitched talking this way
And had my eyes fixed walking this way
Man up on the moon, you were leaving soon
Salt up in my wound, what the hell could I do?
Tell me, tell me
What the hell could I do?
Barely еver seen a pretty smile likе yours
Said you couldn’t wait to get in on all fours
But you left as a friend of a friend
Redesign your walk in the palm of my hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Looking at the stars from the hood of your car
Running out of gas but with you I’m never far
From where I wanna be
Looking on the bright side, still inside of my mind
But you’re a lot of things that I don’t want me to be
And I think you would agree
[Chorus]
But last I saw you was a mighty long time ago
Tryna put yourself in another place, way up high or down below
I still smell the perfume from your skin
And see the look in your eyes
Don’t know where you’ve been but you sure as hell
Caught me by surprise
But last I saw you was a mighty long time ago
Tryna put yourself in another place, way up high or down below
I still smell the perfume from your skin
And see the look in your eyes
Don’t know where you’ve been but you sure as hell
Caught me by surprise
[Verse 2]
I did what I could at all times
Radio silence what I would find
Never a word, never a word, never a
Never a word, until I heard ya
I was out, living about
Taking myself and a friend down the gutter
Man I love it so
Oh, do I love it so
Girl up in the sky, nothing was a lie
Flying so high, you don’t have to die
You don’t have to die
Barely ever seen a white out girl like you
Not for nothing, ain’t not telling you what to do
Distracted like a critter, only herself who did her
Lucked out when you’re drugged out, and fuck now
[Pre-Chorus]
Looking at the stars from the hood of your car
Running out of gas but with you I’m never far
From where I wanna be
Looking on the bright side, still inside of my mind
But you’re a lot of things that I don’t want me to be
And I think you would agree
[Chorus]
But last I saw you was a mighty long time ago
Tryna put yourself in another place, way up high or down below
I still smell the perfume from your skin
And see the look in your eyes
Don’t know where you’ve been but you sure as hell
Caught me by surprise
But last I saw you was a mighty long time ago
Tryna put yourself in another place, way up high or down below
I still smell the perfume from your skin
And see the look in your eyes
Don’t know where you’ve been but you sure as hell
Caught me by surprise
