lyrics

I was brave and you were not
I hope you remember that
I walked through a wicked storm
Seven daggers in my back
You were stoned, better of alone
Pulling smokes from my pack
I was brave and you were not
Remember that
I was brave and you were not
Remember that

What's the word little bird
The worst cosmic joke I've ever heard
Break the wheel, little birdy's neck too
They say don't kill the messenger
But I got a match for every card
That told me I should open up to you

I wanna break all your cigarettes in half
And hide your debit card
I wanna replace your conditioner with ketchup
I'm feeling sorry for myself
And everything I've said thus far
And taking the lowest road to where you are

Is it cold that heart of gold
The worst cosmic joke you've ever told
I'm trying to fake a laugh
Little birds can't find the words
You can kill them with one stone I've heard
I was brave and you were not
Remember that

I wanna take the last two forks you own
And let the air out of your tires
I know I've got no choice but to be alright
But tonight I'm a liar
Who drives into the sun such a vengeful star
Can you see my body burn from where you are?
