Acrophobic Birds

from Someday We'll Live in the Forest by Werewolves

lyrics

you're something hard to believe in you sit up there feathers rustling and you watch your species continuing on without you as you wiggle your beak over the ledge / and the statues down on the street wide-eyed are absent of their old friends, acid rain wears them down / and there's spikes along the edges of your home now and the cables on the bridges are too rusty to live on / and the children on the playground breaking bottles are cutting up the constants of the universe / and you stare down the horizon and calculate the distance you can reach, but the acid rain thinks you're a statue and god created it too stubbornly / it's hard to believe that you are just an error in the process of your replication but i don't really think it matters now / and the children on the playground breaking bottles and cutting up the constants of their arms and their legs / and you stare at the celestial sphere and try to calculate escape velocity, but you're too dumb to build a rocket and the acid rain is eating at your feet / it's hard to believe that you are just a natural rejection and there's nothing popular about your genes / i wish you could be with me, you couldn't really fly in a cage anyway but i really don't think you want to live there anyway i don't really think it matters now
