lyrics

get into the van right away
i'd like to drive into the ocean
and i'd like to clip off my wings
and slide them through the windows of our house

if you want to see inside my head
you won't find sleep, you'll wish you were dead
and i just want to peer into your eyes
and watch your blood pump bird beaks down your spine

(pluck my feathers for me darling, pluck my feathers for me dear
that smothered pain you felt is dying, that clutching grip you felt was fear
along some lake i felt you shiver, and in some house i helped you cry
and if you are some caregiver, why didn't you let us die?
why do you want to hurt us? speak so softly to the sky
is it time you desert us? all you sick ravens fly)

i don't know where i am, i just know that i'm happy
rip my skin i am cold, garnish flesh with feathers
the birds that used to sing hymns, now sing dirges alone
hold your breath we embrace, stratosphere of our own

our phantograph will play our little songs
will cut in deep rip out with tongs
my nest is made of old rusty nails
want to give up now and lay down on the rails
