Do you still see yourself back there In your dreams Do you still find yourself writhing Tear your sheets Go back to sleep There's never any words to write The songbird sighs We were so young for so long How wide our eyes But now I'm tired Will you still be my best friend When there's nothing left Forgotten feeling in the springtime In the growing leaves Oh, stay with me With branches splitting open my head Alive again I'm arraigned in the autumn light Do I have to die to come back alive The song was stolen from my mouth With steady aim I shot the songbird down I didn't mean no harm Still my beating heart I'm an anvil stuffed with down Lightning with no sound We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long We were so young for so long
