One For The Mockingbird

I have learned through all my past mistakes

Not to let the hurdles sap my energy

Time will tell and time is all it takes

You won't see the bastards knock the running out of me

Hear the band, they play one more song

One for the Mockingbird, one more song

All the tears, they fell one by one

All for the Mockingbird, one by one

Now don't be fooled by those who feed you words

Let it twist and tighten up the tourniquet

The sweetest song of all the mockingbirds

Can't hope to match one note of any song we play

Hear the band, they play one more song

One for the Mockingbird, one more song

All the dreams, they broke one by one

All for the Mockingbird, one by one

Oh, what are you hiding from?

Oh, why do you lock the door?

Open up the door

Hear the band, they play one more song

One for the Mockingbird, one more song

All the tears, they fell one by one

All for the Mockingbird, one by one

I have learned, time will tell

Years will pass, tears will fall

Don't be fooled, fed by words

Their sweet songs, mockingbird
