Songtext von Bird Song

Life knocks you down Like a fist through the wall And nothing comes easy Believe me, I know 'Cause I watched you fall You locked yourself in But I understand 'Cause how can you trust them again? Motherfuckers like them never change But maybe you can You're so numb to it now You tell everyone you'll get out We both know you're running your mouth You can't run from yourself When you were young The ghosts in the attic Were all you could fathom When you grew up They followed you out of the house We don't talk about it You cover the mirrors And stop all the clocks But memories come back from the dead Try to lay them to rest Beside gran in the family plot Said you're done with it now I heard that you up and left town The phantoms that follow you around They're much scarier now than when you were young The ghosts in the attic Were all you could fathom When you grew up They followed you out of the house We don't talk about it
