​someday you will control the birds

Lyrics

Reach me when you've got something better than praise Singing the song of victory, though we don't know what it means The words are a reminder This isn't the life we dreamed of But we don't know any different Turning despair into hope like watering Dead flowers by your doorstep Kickstart the engine once again It's colder this year Still gotta pay the bills But these frail limbs can hardly move like they used to Who wouldn't want to move again? You can't change the past, and why would you want to? To relive heartbreak and make the same mistakes? It's not that i'd rather be coughing up glass I'm still alive in ways that make the widows gasp It's not that i'm coughing up glass Barely alive, breathing at best We'll scrape our shoe on the stars (Just go on dancing with me) We'll hang upside down from the moon Just go dancing with me like this
