Lyrics The Mynabirds

The Mynabirds

Mightier Than The Sword

You're not alone in anything

So listen up, my love

A tiny town can tear you down

But the right word can build you up

I know their razor blade names

Cut into your arms

And opened your veins

And you think,

There's nothing you could do

They haven't already done to you

It's hard enough in your bedroom calm

To fend off the hungry birds of prey

And it's a fresh assault when the news comes on

Another one gone today

You study the lines in his face

He looked just like you

Your story's the same

Is there anything I could say

To make you stay

Love who you love

No matter what

No matter how hard it may come

And I promise

You'll be loved, my love

No matter what

You're mightier than

Their sword sharp tongues

Oh I promise

You are loved

Yes I promise

You are loved

So don't give up

When you forget the words

I will sing them for you

(When I forget the words

Will you sing them for me?)

When you forget the words

I will sing them for you
