Songbird Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I wish I knew which button to push
Then I'd know how to please you, it's sad but true
I'll just listen in down the line
While you're busy mixing grape with grain to sedate your pain
[Chorus]
Songbird, you've got tales to tell
How many times can you describe your living hell?
[Verse 2]
The sweeping gesture creates a fuss
It's only useful when receiving praise, relieving no-one's pain
If you'd let somebody love you just enough
You'd have everything you'd need to break free from all your pain
[Chorus]
Songbird, you got tales to tell
How many times can you describe your living hell?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I wish I knew which button to push
Then I'd know how to please you, it's sad but true
[Outro]
If you'd let somebody love you just enough
If you'd let somebody love you just enough
If you'd let somebody love you just enough
If you'd let somebody love you just enough
