War Pigeon Lyrics

Bend your surprise round the human disaster
Feed her with thoughts and a tired lullaby
Hypnotised steps to the lull of the birdsong
With me you"ll waltz to the sounds in your head
I bought my luck and I bought my time
I had my chance and lost a mile
Now I won"t be long, just time to sigh
I had my chance and lost both times
These city ruins breed the human disaster
She knows she"s been drunk if there"s dirt in her nails
And listens to birdsong to find her way home

I bought my luck and I bought my time
Won"t you lead me now?
