To burst the bubble
End of a perfect day
Head full of trouble
Here come the darkest birds
All tar and feathers
Why did none of them dream of trying
To make things better?
Those are the mimicking kind
They are, they are
I number myself among them
The furthest star
And this is the road I walked on
When I shot you down
All words of forgiveness useless
They wont help me now
And I shouldve been there for you
When you called my name
I promise to tread more lightly
Though whats gone is gone
Its such a shame
Here come the darkest birds
Theyve got their reasons
All their pretty colours are gone
Washed out of season
Those are the soaring kind
They are, they are
I number yourself among them
The brightest star
And this is the road I walked on
When I shot you down
All words of forgiveness useless
They wont serve me now
And I shouldve been there for you
When you called my name
I promise to tread more lightly
Though whats done is done
Its such a shame
