Bird Song

Life knocks you down
Like a fist through the wall
And nothing comes easy
Believe me, I know
'Cause I watched you fall
You locked yourself in
But I understand
'Cause how can you trust them again?
Motherfuckers like them never change
But maybe you can
You're so numb to it now
You tell everyone you'll get out
We both know you're running your mouth
You can't run from yourself
When you were young
The ghosts in the attic
Were all you could fathom
When you grew up
They followed you out of the house
We don't talk about it
You cover the mirrors
And stop all the clocks
But memories come back from the dead
Try to lay them to rest
Beside gran in the family plot
Said you're done with it now
I heard that you up and left town
The phantoms that follow you around
They're much scarier now than when you were young
The ghosts in the attic
Were all you could fathom
When you grew up
They followed you out of the house
We don't talk about it
