cats and cats and cats - the boy with the beak lyrics
i’m not a soldier
you wear a soldier’s hat
i’m not a singer
oh, well we both know that
but how the sunrise speaks notes in my…
i’ll shut the shutters
oh mother, let them see
their tongues are sharpened
their words will wash from me
but how their chorus cuts holes in my skin
before i closed my eyes
i felt the fingers fall in feathers in these cheeks
my blue eyes burst with joy
i’m not a soldier
you wear a soldier’s hat
i’m not a swallow
oh so now don’t say that
but how my voice waters flowers in your
you look so wondrous
as your mind walks to sleep
i’ll never leave you
no, you will not leave me
but how the door to this cage opens up
before i wished for flight and closed my eyes
i felt the feathers down my spine
i rushed to draw the blinds
oh, how we fought
these winds guide you onto the war
to these islands deep in your thoughts
this nest smells like…
in the black garden growing withered
and the rain puddled into his lungs
the boy with the beak stood up
before i closed my eyes i watched him sing and dance
his feathers on my feet
and kisses in my sleep
oh, how we fought
these winds guide you far from the war
to these islands deep in your thoughts
this nest smells like home
oh boy, oh boy
where did you get lost to?
looking down on the city we built you up in
to the road cutting lines in the hills
and the earth turns away from us still
we tried, we tried
but we couldn’t find you
while you slept through the forest in the arms of the trees
with your brother’s ghost haunting your dreams
and you filled all your footprints with leaves
our minds grow darker still, you know
i can lose your memory only so slowly
