I Built! My! Self! A! Me!tal! Bird! I! Fed! My! Metal! Bird! The! Wings! Of! Other! Me!tal! Birds!
And oh, how my baby flew!
With heart so high and aim so true!
Up to the roof and into the sky
dumb as fire and twice as wise
Did you see that star go out? (I seen it burn)
Did you see that star go out? (I seen it burn)
That little star went out
your little eyes went out
That little star went out
your little eyes went out
Our burnt little dreams are hid
up where the stars get lit
Our burnt little dreams are hid
up where the stars get lit
Now-time's the right time
let's lay those demons down
Our side's the right side
let's lay those demons down
We're virtueless in the white smoke
Virtueless in the white smoke
Virtueless in the white smoke
Virtueless in the white smoke
White smoke!
White smoke!
White!
