| Little birds born without a mother or a father | |
| I can watch their bodies forming in the running water | |
| Now there is another in the middle of my mouth | |
| 100 all together within me now | |
| Little bird little bird come into my body | |
| Mother they're within me every moment I'm awaking | |
| Bodies multiplying till they finally overtake me | |
| Open up my mouth but all you'll ever hear is singing | |
| Put your hands within me and you'll know what I am feeling | |
| I just want to swallow up and promise to protect them | |
| Daddy come to touch me but he seen his hands are shaking | |
| Look into my eyes and he can see their bodies breaking | |
| Push me to the floor and then his hands started beating | |
| I don't want to hear it anymore he kept repeating | |
| Do you really want the burning hell that we believe in? | |
| Do you know the burning hell it took your baby brother? | |
| Did you see how far he fell and how he made us suffer? | |
| Another boy in town at night he took him for his lover | |
| And deep in sin they held each other. | |
| So I took a hammer nearly beat his little brains in | |
| Knowing god in heaven would've never could forgive him | |
| So I took a hammer and I nearly beat his brains in. | |
| Little boy born without a father or a mother | |
| Taken to the river and then pushed into the water | |
| Now the priest is singing that the hell is getting hotter | |
| Father son and holy ghost the only one to save him | |
| From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him | |
| Father son and holy ghost the only one to save him | |
| From the thing he loves the most but we know will betray him | |
| And here beneath the water I can see how the lights distort so strange | |
| And I think this is how I would like to leave my body and start again. |
