Golden Bird

(album: My Spirit Sister - 2017)

I was only holding out for another chance
Running faster than my feet could take me, clear to the city's edge
Told everybody that my mind was changing, though I never saw the story's end
Down by the water, we were smoking by the old motel

Is there another cure?
A magic golden bird?
Giving what your soul has earned?
Oh, how I'd love to float upon it

I found somebody that would give me comfort when I felt estranged
I plant my poison in the flower garden, hoping that my roots won't take
But every time that the seasons changing, when the clouds puts on a coat of grey
I can feel it creeping over, holing up inside my brain

Is there another cure?
A magic golden bird?
Giving what your soul has earned?
Oh, how I'd love to float upon it

Is there a secret blowing that you've heard?
That gets you to the other world?
She's hiding by the summit but her eyes ain't sure
How to adjust upon it

I was only holding out for another chance
Running faster than my feet could take me, clear to the city's edge
Told everybody that my mind was changing, though I never saw the story's end
Down by the water, we were smoking by the old motel

Is there another cure?
A magic golden bird?
Giving what your soul has earned?
Oh, how I'd love to float upon it

Is there a secret blowing that you've heard?
That gets you to the other world?
She's hiding in the summit but her eyes ain't sure
How to adjust upon it
