Broken BeakIf a bird broke its beakWould it's song be sad and weak? Would it be known as just the same? Or be a bird only in name At a loss for words Its beyond belief You were known to me then Like I hear most songs Well the words they would rhyme Just move along Maybe there's a cause that's without a care Maybe there's some truth that's without a fact Then you came a long, drew some lines The only thing I'm guilty of is killing time And I regret The flames on leaves Erase the tower in Tennessee Where we met I lost my nerve Tell me where it was now, we'd bear a child In the cold with the wolves and a rat gone wild When times were tight watch the dawning twilight In the shame in between witness the sun salient scream Maybe there's a cause that's without a care Maybe there's some truth that's without a fact Then you came a long, drew some lines The only thing I'm guilty of is killing time If a bird broke its beak Would it's song be sad and weak? Would it be known as just the same? Or be a bird only in name Then you came a long, drew some lines The only thing I'm guilty of is killing time |
