Birds

Posted in Songs by admin on the August 15th, 2007

This is a song I wrote a while back called Birds. It was for an unfinished album relating to death, loss, and war. This is a favorite of mine from the album. I hope you like it!
In case anyone is wondering, to get the sloppy picking sound I strummed with my checkbook.
Download It.

A thousand birds
On my windshield
I say no
They say yes
They want money
I want fame
We won’t go back
This way again

Nothing makes it this far
Before it gets too hard
To face the strain

We are building
Up and up
Where it’s going
Is the sky
We keep trying
way too hard
To fly
We have families
Waiting at home
Where this all is going
I don’t know

Nothing makes it this far
Before it gets too hard
To face the strain
