"Birdcage" lyrics
"Birdcage"
So sad that you took it so badly
And acted so madly
So scared
Like a baby by the morning
With sunlight unfolding
Your eyes have turned red
And are holding me
Inside your story
In the end
You'll have started on a new one
Of anguish and delusions
He smiles
Just like a magician
Who's just cast his illusions
Of castles and sandstones
On the back beach
And bright lights
Within your reach
The sounds
Of a warning
By the morning
Of hound dogs coming for me
With the ropes leading back to your knees
And you looking straight at me
On your knees in the rain
With a basket of flowers
Just for me
As the bells in the trees up above
All swung and rang softly
You said you rang them for me
For me

Soul Asylum - "Oxygen" Wishin' upon a mattress
Fallin' off the excess
Slippin' the stillness
Flippin' the bird
I walk you home when you're wasted
I can almost taste it
All this oxygen is for you
But it's a couple more...
Matchbox Twenty - "Overjoyed" Feeling my hands start shaking
Hearing your voice I'm overjoyed
I'm sorry but I have no choice
You're only getting better
Maybe you have your reasons
Maybe you're scared you'll be let down
Are you...
Cracker - "Big Dipper" Cigarettes and carrot juice
Get yourself a new tattoo
For those sleeveless days of June
I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps
With a book I haven't started yet
Watching all the girls walk by
Could I...
