Race Southworth - Bluebird Lyrics

My eyes dried up from the rain last month
Now there's the taste of blood left there on my tongue
A huff and puff struggle up and a blistered thumb
A bit of self-hate made better by a day worked hard
There's a bluebird singing on my hearts strings
She's got own worries she wears there on her wings
Yet the sound she makes as what she plays brings
A sorrowful smile making even ends odd
There's a fight in my belly
That needs to figure its way out
And a weight there on my chest
That gives me the need to shout
If I were just to let go
There ain't no telling how much I'd grow
'Cause young men always need a fight
No matter how hard on a belt they bite
You deserve what you get you're no more heaven-sent
Than all the people before you whose right there was to live
So find the bird who sings your song to your heart's content
After all there's no hiding you'll pay the man in the end
There's a fight in my belly
That needs to figure its way out
And a weight there on my chest
That gives me the need to shout
If I were just to let go
There ain't no telling how far I'd go
'Cause young men always need a fight
No matter how hard on a belt they bite
There's a bluebird singing on my hearts strings
She's got own worries she wears there on her wings
There's a fight in my belly
That needs to figure its way out
And a weight there on my chest
That gives me the need to shout
If I were just to let go
There's no telling how much I'd grow
'Cause young men always need a fight
No matter how hard on a belt they bite
