lirik lagu bambara - birds
[verse 1]
spring, the time of year when tourists shiver on the beach
and baby birds begin to fall out of the sidewalk trees
sometimes when it rained
we’d grab a fifth and find a place to watch the planes
one night, we saw a boeing trailing flames
and you said
“they make it or they don’t”
[verse 2]
you bought a point~and~shoot
to try to document your visions of the truth
cut your t~~th on gritty portraits for the local zines
snapping everywhere we’d go
we rode to coney and you shot a couple rolls
and the boney kid who broke my nose was glad to posе
biting on a bodega rose
[chorus]
then wе crashed on the train
i woke up and saw the sun rising
with your head on my knees
and i closed my eyes
[verse 3]
i saw a fl!cker of your face
above the candle with a sticker of a saint
lit a cig and then you pulled me into the smoke
then i was driving in the snow
you and nick were scared, yelling where to go
but the firebird was skidding all over the road
i said, “d~mn thing’s dancing on its own
we make it or we don’t”
[chorus]
passed out on the train
i woke up to find the sun blinding
you were still sound asleep
so i closed my eyes
[outro]
(then i was walking in a hazy field near where i’m from)
passed out on the train
(i’d just clipped my first dove with my father’s shotgun)
i was bleeding in the sunlight
(i found her among the sunflowers, still flapping her wings)
with your head on my knees
(i scooped her gently into my hands, and i set her free)
and love on my mind
