lyrics

Birdy in the coal mine
City on a fault line
Was it less than a thousand years ago?
(Shedding like a snake, bending not to break)
City, remember the way we were back then?
Hatchling and room up for rent

Oh level gaze,
You escape me once again
I’ll turn and wave
To the past, like it’s a friend
What a glorious descent!

Follow all signs
Stamped out in the sky
Be the baby that you were born to be
(Trace the lines below, footprints in the snow)
Honey, remember those polycotton sheets?
Stinking of you and me

Oh level gaze,
You escape me once again
I’ll claw my face
In the search for evidence
That we could ever cheat the end

(Blood type, birthright)
All good cities know where they should stand
(Mother’s furs)
Wherever they’ll take you on dry land

(Bad lungs, curled tongue)
All good birds know where they belong
Safe and sound, underground
Sweetly singing their songs
Sweetly singing their songs

Oh level gaze,
You escape me once again
I’ll turn and wave
To the past, like it’s a friend

Oh level gaze,
You escape me once again
I’ll claw my face
In the search for evidence
That we could ever cheat the end
