is he still coming around like an injured bird needing a nest?

a place to rest his head in a song you'll regret

and if you had his lungs, you could breathe more

and if you had his tongue, it would mean more

you'd better say it to yourself now

i want to close my eyes

'cause you don't see

you're dreaming of someone and it's not me

i'm at the darkened hillside

and there's a haze right between the trees

and i can barely see you 

you're like an ocean in between the waves

the silence will take care of itself

but i want you and not somebody else

caught up in things we couldn't change

but this arrow's flying on its way

fortresses of stone, turn into crystal tears

soothed by southern winds; i've found my strength now

and nobody knows, and we must keep their secret

baby i've been here before

i've seen this room and i've walked this floor

i used to live alone before i knew you

shot an arrow, in your harbour

where you waited in the rain

i am siren, i am ivy

i am no one, i'm nobody

mistaken for a vision

something of my own creation

any certainties, how am i to tell?

do what you said the words she said left out

over unto the sky where i'll soon fly

mercy, mercy i've been caught

lying with my darkest thought

they grabbed my wings

and pinned me to the wall

you take me and i'll take you

in the pit there in the smoke

i can never make out your face, 

or at least i can't remember it

i have no eyes, i have no love, i have no hope

you're a needle in the hay

you're the water at the door

you're a million miles away

doesn't matter anymore

the morning's on its way

you know it's only just a dream

there is a war inside my core

i hear it fight, i hear it roar 

go ahead, go ahead

lay your head where it burns

take another sip of them

it floats around and takes me over 

like a little drop of ink in a glass of water

oh, you wouldn't want an angel watching over

surprise, surprise, they wouldn't wanna watch

another un-innocent, elegant fall

into the un-magnificent lives of adults
