|
I really had to go downtown. |
|
Go downtown and hang around. |
|
Was not prepared for what i found. |
|
A baby bird was lyin' on the ground. |
|
Lying there in front of my feet. |
|
Dying there right next to the street. |
|
I picked it up and felt it's heat. |
|
I tried to wake her up but she wanted to sleep. |
|
I'm trying, and i'm trying, and i'm trying |
|
But i can't get away from the thought. |
|
It's dying, it's dying, it's dying, |
|
And it's something that i couldn't stop. |
|
You're lying, you're lying, if you say |
|
It's gonna make it 'cos i know that it's not. |
|
Hanging on a telephone line. |
|
Witnessing a million crimes. |
|
I've been alone all this time. |
|
I'd call someone but i don't have a dime. |
|
I don't care for boys or girls. |
|
I'd rather hang around with the birds. |
|
Humans only wreck the world. |
|
They'd kill your whole family for a string of pearls. |
|
I'm trying, and i'm trying, and i'm trying |
|
But i can't get away from the thought. |
|
We're dying, we're dying, we're dying. |
|
Our insides are starting to rot. |
|
You're lying, you're lying, if you say |
|
We're okay, 'cos maybe we're not. |
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. |
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. |
|
Oooh... ooh ooh... ooh |
|
If i had wings i'd try to fly. |
|
But they don't make it harder to die. |
|
You can take it up to the sky. |
|
But no one ever stays that high. |
|
High... high |
|
I'm trying, and i'm trying, and i'm trying |
|
But i can't get away from the thought. |
|
I'm dying, i'm dying. |
|
I already gave away all that i've got. |
|
I'm lying, i'm lying, if i say |
|
That i'm cool 'cos really i'm not. |
