Oh god loved the birds
And he made them trees
Man loved the birds
And he built them cages
Ain't nothing to a cage
But the best intent
Tell that to the one
Sitting inside it
The thrill of the hunt
Surpassed the thrill of the catch
What we ensnare
We always want to throw back
Sweeter than honey
But stings like a bee
This doctor medicates
Unpredictably
The ways we love get stranger
The ways we love get stranger
The ways we love get stranger all the time
A very wise soul once said to me,
"The creatures you tame
You can never set free."
We're children playing at playground games
Without knowing the rules
Or how to take blame
Cut deeper with a word
Than a sharpened knife
Indifference makes the loneliest nights
Can't explain why we wound like we do
The closer the heart, the bluer the bruise
The ways we love get stranger
The ways we love get stranger
The ways we love get stranger all the time

Stillness is strange
To a wanderer like I am
Hot-blooded,
I cool down
It's just how you breathe
When you're lying next to me
Something heavy in me
Breaks down
And if I said that I never wanted to change this
I know you'd be the one to understand
Coffee with cream
Cool night turning morning
See perfection in
Every little thing
It's just how you are
When you're falling into me-
We hold forever like a secret
And if I said that I never wanted to change this
I know you'd be the one to understand

You make me feel
Feel lightheaded
And I love the unsteady
But you never wait til I'm ready
Always taking me
Taking me by surprise
Yeah, there's a beauty in imperfection
But I think we're living on wishful thinking
I'll have two, two of what you're drinking
If it keeps reality at bay
One step forward
Two steps back
First you want me so badly
Then you don't want me back
One step forward
Two steps back
I love you so madly
But you're driving me mad
How long can lies
Keep on rolling?
Jump in your eyes,
I'll keep on swimming
I'm fine if I don't know
What you're thinking
Smoke and mirrors keep me
Keep me satisfied
Yeah there's a beauty in imperfection
But I think we're living on wishful thinking
Can't put us back with all those pieces missing
Do you think they'll notice if
We're never quite the same?
One step forward,
Two steps back
First you want me so badly
Then you don't want me back
One step forward,
Two steps back
I love you so madly
But you're driving me mad

The World Is Ours

Birds in flight
Ships in the night
Clouds so close
You could touch them,
If you tried
No one has been here before
The world is ours
No one has been here before
The world is ours
Soft nightfrost,
Crystallize our breath
Sweet numbness
At the fingertips
No one has been here before
The world is ours
No one has been here before
The world is ours
