Magpies on fire

1. Magpies on fire

Making love like little wolves

out on the porch can leave the medicine

Oh well I’m game for anything at all

Scarecrows are liars

Spins a yarn and no one

ever checked it out,

to see if it was real

Sold you the moon,

and now it’s time to fall

All along it’s like the bird

who’s trapped alone inside the cage

Love

R: What more do you want?

Heaven, what can you take?

I love my mistake

I’ve been here before

2. All in all it’s just

A call of something wide beyond your room

There’s a changing of a major,

could ya mind, a thread will do

Love

My gun misfired

Shot myself instead I guess

I always knew I‘d be the one to lose

That screen door slammed,

time to make a move, help me

R: What more do you want...

3. All in all it’s not the bird

who’s trapped alone inside the cage

Love

A bird who’d only live at half your age, girl

A bird who’s never really here to stay

R: What more do you want...

Used to watch, she’s like a bird

who’s now been freed from someone’s cage
