building love birds Lyrics

you said what's needed, just some chords,
truth, and a sincere beating heart
am I a scarecrow? it's just a thought,
cos I haven't seen any birds in quite a while

tell yourself what you have to, to make it through

i am the building where the birds
like to perch, converse about all the ones
who move strange, but never come up above
for all the air that's been left for them, but not for us

i will stand still for all the birds, to rest their wings and talk of us

we're the foolish ones

chorus
save your goodbyes for another day, for another life
i will not fly, for you held me up when the others turned to dust
