Little girl don't be sad, I've set your eyes on fire
Don't say I'm a liar, that I don't love you
Something has brought me down but I won't give up hope
It's hard for you to cope when I'm around you
Let the sun break through
The cracks within my room
The grey sky fades to blue
It might wash away this gloom
Alcohol, company; I need to readjust
From this place of dust, let's go drink tonight
And at the bar we'll drink 'til dawn
and I'll pretend I'm dead
Whilst resting my poor head by the neon light
Let the sun break through
The cracks within my room
The grey sky fades to blue
It might wash away this gloom (x 2 )
The birds will sing for us, we all die in the end
The birds will sing for us, but we all die in the end
The birds will sing for us, the birds will sing for us
The birds will sing for us, but we all die in the end
