Death Cab for Cutie
Talking Bird
Oh, my talking bird
Though you know so few words
They're on infinite repeat
But your brain can't keep up with your beak
And you're kept in an open cage
So you're free to leave or stay
Sometimes you get confused
But there's a hint I am trying to give you
The longer you think, the less you know what to do
It's hard to see your way out
When you live in a house in a house
Cause you don't realize
That the windows were open the whole time
But oh, my talking bird
Though your feathers are tattered and curved
I'll love you all your days
Till the breath leaves your fragile frame
It's all here for you as long as your choose to stay
It's all here for you as long as you don't fly away
