"Eagle In My Nest" lyrics

"Eagle In My Nest"

What a shame to be born
Suspended in my mother
A tiny, naked guest
The blood we shared was warm
From one heart to another
A chest inside a chest
My first platonic lover
The eagle in my nest

It's so hard
Being alive
No wonder everybody dies
And it's such a shame
Just getting by
But everything will be alright
In the end

Please don't tell the boys
I hope I have a daughter
And if I had the choice
She'd look just like her mother
A tiny version of her
A love to keep my world goin' 'round

'Cause it's so hard
Being alive
No wonder everybody dies
Oh, it's such a shame
Just getting by
But everything will be alright

Oh, it's so hard
Being alive
With no one by your side
It's such a shame
We live and die
But everything will be alright

In the end
Oh, in the end
I know I'll be alright
In the end
Oh, in the end
I know I'll be alright
In the end
