Текст песни The Bird Song - Noah Floersch

She was a bird, I was an arrow
Both of us sure we were sword and a sparrow
Still, when we flew, we never knew (ooh-ooh)
There in the air, I felt her feathers
First all at once, then all together
When I went through, that's when I knew (ooh-ooh)

I'm a killer, and a killer is a bad, bad thing to be
She's a giver, and a giver's even worse to folks like me
'Cause I never really wanna be the one (never)
To hurt somebody (wanna hurt someone)
But it just keeps happening (why?)
Yeah, it just keeps happening (why?)

I was a bird, he was an arrow
I was allured by the straight and the narrow
What could I do? His aim was true
Straight to the heart, I let it happen
I couldn't hardly have ever imagined
That when he went through me, he'd hate what he's doin'
And make me feel stupid for choosin' him, too

'Cause I'm a giver, and a giver is a bad, bad thing to be
He's a killer, and a killer's even worse for folks like me
'Cause I never really wanna feel (never)
The hurt from anybody (wanna feel the hurt)
But it just keeps happening (why?)
Yeah, it just keeps happening (why?)
Yeah, it just keeps happening

Falling, never to fly again
Darling, together when everything's fadin'
The shade of the trees in the dark
I'm in love with the idea of dyin' with you in my arms
But not like this

We can't really help who we are
We can't really help who we are
We can't really help who we are
Damned to the end from the start
We can't really help who we are
We can't really help who we are
We can't really help who we are
Damned to the end from the start

We can't really help who we are
We can't really help who we are (she was a bird)
We can't really help who we are (I was an arrow)
(Both of us sure)
(We were sword and a sparrow) damned to the end from the start
(I was a bird)
We can't really help who we are (he was an arrow)
We can't really help who we are
