For the Birds

Throw all of my things out on the front lawn
For all I care, they can float away
Said a lot of things that don't make any sense at all
Most particularly, nothing

And words
Are for
The birds

Grass is always greener in a new town
'til you realize it's just you again
Woke afraid alone just before the fall of Rome
You were worried you missed it

Well words
Are for
The birds

Everything you see is a cinema scene
Everything you hear is a dream, dream, dream
Everything you say sounds stupid to me
To me

Let it be a lesson for remembrance
To watch for falling rocks along the road
Look up once a while, you'll be heading out in style
In a held handbasket
But words
Are for
The birds
