letra de forest song - a small bird

[verse]
i had a dream we drove to the nature preserve
sat on the dam while the lake froze over
and our friends were there
real friends, the kind you don’t lie to
even if it’s kind to

[verse]
bare-legged from sneaker to thigh
but the ticks and centipedes were all gone by this time
and the winter kissed our skin
like the hands of royalty
only cold еnough to lean you into holding me

[chorus]
do you want to roll in the dirt
’till thе voices in our heads grow so ho-rs- they hurt?
i want to dance on the roof
but just for a second and then stay in my room for good
i was the kid who walked all the way around
‘cause the fence was too high, and i hadn’t done enough to die
we’re running out of time
and it’s been on my mind
night after night

[verse]
if we could vacation in some enchanted wood
park in the lot and get glamoured up good, and
meet creatures bathed in illuminated dust
who will never say the kind of things some people say to us
and we’d go dancing in the trees
uncoiled from our minds
wondering if there’s really people
who feel this all the time
[chorus]
and i would feel better than fine
until two hours in, and we’re already run out of time
rush from event to event
so desperate to get an ineffable something from this
we’d say “why can’t we live our lives
each precious second and definite day at a time?”

[verse]
i had a dream we drove outside the city limits
’til the houses gave way to the overwhelming image
of the trees against the sky
the mirror in your eyes
the old tableau of you and me alone tonight

[chorus]
i want to roll in the dirt
’til the voices in our heads grow so ho-rs- they hurt
i want to dance on the roof
with the right kind of moves of a body that’s honest for good
and i’m walking all the way around
cause the fence is too high, and there’s never a good time to die
running out of time
but you’re running beside
