Anthony D’Amato - Songbirds lyrics

I've got a plan for my demons
I'm gonna meet them in the morning
We'll televise it like a fight
Hey'll never know the fix is in
I'll take a fall in the first
Round, get my lips split, landin' face down
Never bet against your sins

I've got a plan for my best friends
I'm gonna tell them that I'm leavin'
Packin' up all my loose ends
With a suitcase and guitar
I always make it to the
Taxi, with my bags packed, in the backseat
But, I never get too far

From that lonesome feelin' of a hollow chest
The cage is empty, all the songbirds left
The credit's rollin', oh
The screen went dark and I lost my heart
I've been puttin' on a brave face
When I say grace every evenin'
Holdin' faith like a hostage
Till I lost it one night

No, it never takes long

That lonesome feelin' of a hollow chest
The cage is empty, all the songbirds left

And I lost my heart i lost my heart

I cut a hole in the window
Where my dreams go in the morning
Settle down on the sidewalk
Like a fine chalk dust
Still, my lover's havin' nightmares
As she lies there, right beside me
She's never far enough

From that lonesome feelin' of a hollow chest
The cage is empty, all the songbirds left
Don't you worry, don't you lose your heart
I will sing their part
I will sing their part
I will sing their part
