I'm not a bird
I'm a murder of birds
Shifting my shape
When your tongue finds the words
Like I hate you when I
Love you the most
Love you the most
Love you the most
This shape of a snake
In a defensive coil
Same retracted lips
Of the one foolish girl
Says she hates you when she
Loves you the most
Loves you the most
Loves you
And I’ve got demons when I need 'em
Don't ask to see them
They're not supposed to be used against
You oh
Can we build a safe house
Far from the bitter bride
And we'll make a home with a brown recluse
And the cobra locked outside
For the spider we'll give a web
To the cobra a lullaby
And keeping the demons happy
You make free for me to fly
And the shape of home baked bread
And the girl in a turned down bed
And a wick of twisted thread
From the loving words you said
Birds
And I think I’m alone
In desire for grace
Fire only shimmered
And I’m no longer safe
I say I hate you and I
Love you the most
Love you the most
Love you the most
This shape of my breast
And a shape of my kiss
Demented coil
With a slither and hiss
Said I hate you and I
Love you the most
Love you the most
Love you
And I’ve got demons when I need 'em
Don't ask to see them
They're not supposed to be used against
You oh
Can we build a safe house
Far from the bitter bride
And we'll make a home with a brown recluse
And the cobra locked outside
To the spider we'll give a web
To the cobra a lullaby
And keeping the demons happy
You make free for me to fly
And the shape of home baked bread
And the girl in a turned down bed
And a wick of twisted thread
From the loving words you said
The shape of home baked bread
And the girl in a turned down bed
And a wick of twisted thread
From the loving words you said
'Cause I’m not a bird
I'm a murder of birds
