Every time I see a bird Flying over my head I get to thinking could be you Coming down to check Every time I see a bird Tumble out of the sky Realize you're still alive, still alive Spent the summer on the train Passing cities in the night Always planning my escape That golden church of lies Didn't need home like that 'til it died I was just a kid with wool in my eyes Lot of life denied How do you know I been dreaming Of dangerous things? It's five in the morning I'm fixing again You appear at the window And open your wings Surprise, surprise A little bird arrives, you're still alive The other day I saw a bird Struggle in the wind Beaten black and blue Then rising up again I want that fight to set me free We get close, but we don't speak I know you're still alive How do you know I been dreaming Of dangerous things? It's five in the morning I'm fixing again You appear at the window And open your wings Surprise, surprise A little bird arrives, you're still alive (Just at the minute when I'm starting to break) Still alive (hand on the trigger and I'm starting to shake) Still alive (you fall from the sky with perennial grace) (Bird outside my window) You're still alive (this hotel room is turning into a cage) You're still alive (seventeen hours feels like seventeen days) Still alive (you fall from the sky with perennial grace) (Bird outside my window)
