Mockingbirds

歌詞

Devastation at last, finally we meet After all of these years out here in the street I had a feeling you would make yourself known You came along just to claim your place on the throne Now I have been overthrown, overthrown And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine Devastation, my door was left open wide You brought me into your heart and you swallowed my pride I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts I made a note to myself, I nearly forgot Now I'm overwrought, I'm overwrought And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine One day this ground will break and open up for me I hope it will, I hope it will Salutations at last, I'm down on my knees I heard the bugle this morning blast Reveille Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm All my sails were ablaze, I was chained to the helm Now I'm overwhelmed, overwhelmed And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine And I thought if I toe the right lines But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
