Walked by a patch of water in which I saw the sun It made me think of you, & how far you'd really gone Then I heard the sound of wings, of a bird that didn't sing He held his breath for you, that's something that I can't do That bird didn't know a sad song & when I whistled one he flew along I guess what scared him was the sound, he left two feathers on the ground
I left them i the earth, guess all beauty turns to dirt, but I will wait for you till the stars fall down into my backyard I will wait for you, as the sun burns down upon my back I'm lost in the stars Love is a battlefield, love is murder Pacifism is suicide, what can I do but hurt her? The stars aren't falling & neither are you & I The stars are calling, but we're not calling anymore Let's start another war [repeat chorus] Once we were free to ram these lands & cut right through the fog
Now that they're gone & we're older, we stalk these streets like lost dogs
