Call a code
Call the brakeman
Were you in love
Were you mistaken
Just like the other bleeding hearts
The threads of me were picked apart
Nothing gained
Nothing ventured
You had a face
You never mentioned
I don't know what we're waiting for
Let's go to bed or go to war
'Cause I've got two little birds caged right here in my ribs
To keep them safe from saboteurs and arsonists
I was built for any kind of weather
Anyone can fall apart
Let's fall together
It's a script
It's a rhythm
The leaden road
To be forgiven
So send the children back to bed
And draw those crosses an our heads
'Cause I've got two little birds caged right here in my ribs
To keep them safe from saboteurs and arsonists
I was built for any kind of weather
Anyone can fall apart
Let's fall together
Chain smoking
Bible quoting
Dressed for a funeral
Pray for us Icarus
Been talking with our mouths full
Call up the law
'Cause I'm betting on a fight
If we're gonna do it then we're gonna do it right
I'll be your quicksilver
Red river
Jonesing for some good luck
Watch your back my darling
Every girl out there is moonstruck
Hand me that bottle
Everybody's on the make
But I've seen your sort before
And I know just the way they break
