lyrics

See I was born with a wooden spoon in my mouth, and it left splinters in my grin, and tints of red in my spit. I was born to an alcoholic adolescent couple of star-crossed lovers, falling to their deaths. Fall birds fall! You had it all, you traded family for the bottle.

I used to run into the arms of a man I’ll never see again, I used to think my mother could just kiss the pain away, my brother tried to hang himself before he was even born, I think he was onto something.

How could we, but three small birds, build a nest from these fallen dreams?
How could we build a nest, our beaks brimming with red?
Mom and dad, we’re all you had, no drink nor pill could change that.
