Lovebird

[Chorus 1]
Lovebird Lovebird, carry on
Clip my wings, and defeat my words, just
Scream as you sing me down
Oh, carry on, carry on

[Verse 1]
Lying, cheating, breathing & reaping (Lying, and cheating)
The product of words that were not yours for reading
F***ing with feelings when f***ing falls fleeting (Dishonest, a shame you're so sweet-faced)
When nothing inside of you has any meaning

Look at me! Look at you, you’re sure full of s***
How are you so composed yet still cacophonous
Bleeding strings for attention, and me for the hit (Bleeding from the ears, telling me you're in love)
And I don't understand why you’d call me such fib (Never should I ever have thought you were my dove)

[Chorus 2]
Lovebird Lovebird, you carry on
Feigning dreams, and, seeding your own truth
To break me down
Oh, carry on, carry on

[Verse 2]
Lying (C'mon! Carry on)
How are you so unashamed
I would puke in my mouth trying to lie like you do
I can't wrap my damn head around what you choose

There's such a struggle for audacity, a longing for sincerity
Incentive, I suppose, is to fake your authenticity
And shake it for the lightened scene, a crowd longing to see your sheets
Baby, strike your pose, and collect them all into their seats

[Chorus 3]
Lovebird Lovebird
Go f*** yourself
Tell me the beat, and please talk down to me just
Scream as you bring me down
Oh, carry on, carry on

[Bridge]
Lying, Deceiving
What are you?
What is your truth?

Always pretty thoughts
Never could convict
Seems so simple now
What a lovely trick

If I do repent
For falling for shade
Is there glory now
To this painful change

Was there ever love
Was there ever hope
Was the hate I feel
Hidden in your notes

Do you lie for fun
Is jest breaking words
Can you cut the call
Did you cut the call

Always pretty thoughts
Never could convict
Seems so simple now
I'm a f***ing trick

Damn, your smile got
Me falling for shade
Is there glory now
To that painful change

[Breakdown]
Hartman, darling, are your ears bleeding
Please spill out your thoughts cause I'm not hearing
La la la, your words lack any meaning
When you lie, like you lie, like the way that I'm feeling
Pontchartrain, a-Musk-e-gaw
Thot retrograde has him weeping
He'll dance, f***ing Dance, until the strings are f***ing screaming

[Outro]
Lovebird, Lovebird, softly spoken
Would you mind to the broken
Man am I, please, if you’d find some time for me
I might be a worthless coward
My heart only worth devour
Please don’t mind my doubts, you'd sing for me
I fear not the wrath of powers
But I’ll break and shatter downwards
If you show me where my bones are exposed
With smolder and smoke
