Futurebirds - For You Lyrics

Futurebirds Lyrics

"For You"

Can you do me just one?
Pour some oil into
The sockets of my jawbone
Cause I've got creaky boards for bones
And they've been drying out so long
Pretty soon they'll turn to dust and be gone

But I'll never be in your plans it seems
I'll never be the man
Walking around in your dreams
And I never did understand anything

But honey, I'll fall down for you
I'll fall down for you
I'll walk out that door for you, honey
I'll set you free
Be happy for me

I know the company I keep
They don't talk much and they can't sleep
But honey we all got some basic needs
Just a way to pull the screen
Just a way to pull the strings
Just some silence in the scene

But I'll never be in your plans it seems
I'll never be the man
Walking around in your dreams
And I never did understand anything

But honey, I'll fall down for you
I'll fall down for you
I'll walk out that door for you, honey
I'll set you free
Be happy for me

I'll fall down for you
I'll fall down for you
I'll walk out that door for you, honey
