The Oh Hellos - Passerine lyrics

[The Oh Hellos - Passerine lyrics]

Like carillon bells
The house of Augustus rings
With the echoing hymn of my fellow passerine
They took to it like a fox to a burrow
Like an eagle to an aerie and my god
It's getting hard to even hum a single thing

Cause you were the song that I'd always sing
You were the light that the fire would bring
But I can't shake this feeling
That I was only
Pushing the spear into your side again

See, my birds of a kind
They more and more are looking like
Centurions than any little messiah
And as I prune my feathers
Like leaves from a vine
I find that we have fewer and fewer in kind
But



My palms and fingers still reek of gasoline
From throwing fuel to the fire
Of that Greco-Roman dream
Purifying the holy rock to
Melt the gilded seams
It don't bring me relief
No it don't bring me nothing that

You were the song that I'd always sing
You were the light that the fire would bring
But I can't shake this feeling
That I was only
Pushing the spear into your side again
And again and again

When he comes a-knocking at my door
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord
When the cold wind rolls in from the north
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord

When he comes a-knocking at my door
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord
When the cold wind rolls in from the north
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord

When he comes a-knocking at my door
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord
When the cold wind rolls in from the north
What am I to do, what am I to do, oh lord
