The Bird Song (with Em Beihold) - Noah Floersch

[00:00.72] She was a bird, I was an arrow

[00:04.17] Both of us sure we were sword and a sparrow

[00:08.42] Still, when we flew, we never knew (ooh-ooh)

[00:16.91] There in the air, I felt her feathers

[00:20.90] First all at once, then all together

[00:25.15] When I went through, that's when I knew (ooh-ooh)

[00:33.13] I'm a killer, and a killer is a bad, bad thing to be

[00:37.10] She's a giver, and a giver's even worse to folks like me

[00:41.09] 'Cause I never really wanna be the one (never)

[00:44.28] To hurt somebody (wanna hurt someone)

[00:45.87] But it just keeps happening (why?)

[00:47.47] Yeah, it just keeps happening (why?)

[00:58.35] I was a bird, he was an arrow

[01:02.34] I was allured by the straight and the narrow

[01:06.60] What could I do? His aim was true

[01:15.09] Straight to the heart, I let it happen

[01:18.81] I couldn't hardly have ever imagined

[01:23.07] That when he went through me, he'd hate what he's doin'

[01:27.30] And make me feel stupid for choosin' him, too

[01:31.30] 'Cause I'm a giver, and a giver is a bad, bad thing to be

[01:34.75] He's a killer, and a killer's even worse for folks like me

[01:39.26] 'Cause I never really wanna feel (never)

[01:42.72] The hurt from anybody (wanna feel the hurt)

[01:43.78] But it just keeps happening (why?)

[01:45.37] Yeah, it just keeps happening (why?)

[01:54.13] Yeah, it just keeps happening

[02:05.82] Falling, never to fly again

[02:10.33] Darling, together when everything's fadin'

[02:17.25] The shade of the trees in the dark

[02:25.47] I'm in love with the idea of dyin' with you in my arms

[02:33.98] But not like this

[02:36.64] We can't really help who we are

[02:41.15] We can't really help who we are

[02:45.93] We can't really help who we are

[02:50.71] Damned to the end from the start

[02:55.49] We can't really help who we are

[03:00.01] We can't really help who we are

[03:04.79] We can't really help who we are

[03:09.84] Damned to the end from the start

[03:14.62] We can't really help who we are

[03:18.88] We can't really help who we are (she was a bird)

[03:23.66] We can't really help who we are (I was an arrow)

[03:30.56] (Both of us sure)

[03:31.09] (We were sword and a sparrow) damned to the end from the start

[03:32.95] (I was a bird)

[03:33.22] We can't really help who we are (he was an arrow)

[03:37.20] We can't really help who we are
