Paper Bird - Good Morning, Split Sides lyrics

She woke up and turned around
And the pillow was making that swishing sound
So the rain still kept falling
Drown the street
It was morning, and the sun was the same
Still the same

His eyes were dark
They were staring at a ceiling white
He was wearing blue cloth, torn
And two red shoes, broken too
And the doorbell kept ringing
And the birds started singing:
"It's morning, it's morning
And it's the same, still the same"

So why can't she get up and
Say why she's fed up?
I bet she can't, bet she can't, bet she can't
'Cause we all can't say what
Really bothers us at times
And why can't he cry out and
Make it all sound as if
We knew what to do, how to talk, where to go
Why we slam the door, going, going, gone?
Going, going, gone going, going, gone

He came by
And I was asking some small talk question
He was giving me a strange look
And he wasn't really
Wasn't really there at all
And I opened the window, I let something in
It must be the water I wish we could swim
I wish we could swim

So why can't she get up and
Say why she's fed up?
I bet she can't, bet she can't, bet she can't
'Cause we all can't say what
Really bothers us at times
And why can't he cry out and
Make it all sound as if
We knew what to do, how to talk, where to go
Why we slam the door, going, going, gone?
Going, going, gone going, going, gone
Going, going, gone

She woke up and turned around
And the pillow was making that swishing sound
So the rain still kept falling
