"Magpies On Fire" lyrics

"Magpies On Fire"

Magpies on fire
Making love like little wolves out on the porch
Can lead to medicine
Oh well, I'm game for anything at all

Scarecrow's a liar
Spins a yarn and no one ever checked it out
To see if it was real
Sold you the moon and now it's time to fall

All along it's like a bird
Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

All and all it's just the call
Of something wild beyond your room
There's a changing of the major chord
Your minor threat will do, love

My gun misfired
Shot myself instead
I guess I always knew
I'd be the one to lose
That screen door slams
Time to make a move

Help me

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

All and all it's like a bird
Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love
A bird who's born to live at half your age, girl
A bird who's never really had a say

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

Least of all she's like a bird
Who's now been freed from someone's cage
