Some Birds

Some birds
Just sit
Useless
Like fists
I wrestle
On TV
But no one ever
Let’s me win
I lean
On the wall
Like a broom
Confused
By the scope
Of it all
Any fool
Can tell the truth

And though I don’t
Think that I should
Add one
To the sum
Of all that you fear
I’d love to take you down
And leave you there

In my window
I have a twin
I look out
He looks in
He has a point
I applaud

Oh my goodness
Oh my god
Is it my fault
The countrysides
Are so full
Of suicide?
I break bricks
With my heart
But only a fool
Would call it art.

No I don’t
Think that I should
Be one
Of the sum
Of all that you fear
I’d love to take you down
And leave you there
I’d love to take you down
And leave you there

So why fuss
Why not bend
Like a nail
Hammered in
Times are tough
If I recall Oh it ain’t easy
No not at all

And no I don’t
Think I should
Complete

The sum
Of all that you fear
I’d love to take you down
And leave you there
I’d love to take you down
Down, and leave you there
