lyrics
Nothing’s ever evil anymore,
Especially when my eyes are pecked right out,
And my stupid mouth is stitched up tight.
Birds are tapping at my window pane,
Mock and tap and mock and tap all day.
Nothing’s ever funny anymore,
Mangled and deformed and rendered down,
I need to think I can get away.
Birds are tapping at my window pane,
Mock and tap and mock and tap all day.
Nothing’s ever murder anymore,
Especially when my wings are clipped right off,
And my little legs are bent right back.
Birds are tapping at my window pane,
Mock and tap and mock and tap all day.
Nothing’s ever easy anymore,
Messed up, forgotten and flown away,
I beg you to tell me it’s all wrong.
