I Know Where the Canaries and Crows Go

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Why can't we let our mouths devour each other? Why can't we turn those miles into inches? Letters into breath, years into seconds? We always said we'd return to the candy-coated jungle Why can't we let our mouths devour? We always said that we would return To see what kind of orchard our heart seeds grew [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, yeah, yeah! [Chorus] I know where the canaries go And I know where the crows go So pick up the fucking phone, baby! [Verse 2] I wrote you a letter just the other day, my friend: "Tonight, my body lays crucified under the cactus our love grew Tonigh, black feathers will float from the sky like it's raining lies" [Bridge] "Tonight my lungs are hanging from a telephone wire" (Choking on the broken digits of a dial tone) "Tonight my lungs are hanging from a telephone wire" (Choking on the broken digits of a dial tone) "Tonight my lungs are hanging from a telephone wire" (Choking on the broken digits of a dial tone) [Interlude] Where did our hearts go? Where did our hearts go? Where did our hearts go? Where did the crows go? Where did our hearts go? Where did our hearts go? Where did the crows go? Where did our hearts go? Where did our hearts go? Where did the crows go? Where did our hearts go? Where did the crows go? [Refrain] Whoa, our mouths are limp mouths Our mouths are limp Whoa, our mouths are limp mouths Our mouths are limp [Verse 3] We said we'd return for our petrified hearts Put our name to the parchment made a pact in the dark Gauze-gagged beaks may pump And beat but sealed inside are secrets screaming to speak [Refrain] Whoa-oh-oh, our mouths are limp mouths Our mouths are limp Whoa-oh-oh, our mouths are limp mouths Our mouths are limp Whoa-oh-oh, our mouths are limp mouths Our mouths are limp Whoa-oh-oh, our mouths are limp mouths (We ate the white from the wedding) Our mouths are limp (Ate the sheets from the bedding) [Bridge] We ate the smiles off our children (We ate the white from the wedding) Ate the leather off our birth skin (Come now, get it, come now, get it) Leather off our birth skin [Breakdown] Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah! [Chorus] I know where the canaries go And I know where the crows go So pick up the fucking phone, baby! [Post-Chorus] Have we wasted our whole lives (Haven't we? Choke on it) Sucking candy-coated bullets from the chemical gun? (Haven't we? Oh) Every car that passes on this crooked highway bears your face on its grill (Choke on it) Every headlight casts your shadow onto my open-heart vigil (Choke on it, haven't we? Choke on it) [Outro] I know where the canaries go, baby! I know where the crows go, yeah! I know where the canaries go, baby! I know where the crows go, yeah! So pick up the fucking phone!!!
