After The Blackbird Sings

Finding it hard just to hang on to someone

To hang on to nothing, only to lose what's never mine

And I'm finding it hard just to keep up with something

Tagging onto nothing, to keep all these chains tied and in line

In line

Now pretty angel, she bites the hands of a lion

Ties it up with ribbon, watches as hound dogs beg on her drums

Drums

So, so easy for you to love nobody

So easy for you 'cause you're not trying anymore

I seen this girl, she had her hands full of lightning

Rolled it down to me, a lowly little smile with a thorn in her eyes

Now she, she spoke of worlds upon the edge of a pearl

Carnival's girl, up on a Ferris wheel forever

Forever

So easy for you to love nobody

So easy for you 'cause you're not trying anymore

Just don't try anymore

Now she, she hopped like an owl only to fall like a sparrow

Played beside the scarecrow, after the blackbird sings his song

Song

It's just so

It's just so easy for you to love nobody

It's just so easy for you 'cause you're not trying anymore
