Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've always known an anger
And I've always known a shame
I felt it like a hunger
Before I knew my name
I'm just an empty promise
With nothing much to say
So fill me up with poison
And pour me down the drain
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I was crooked from the cradle
I'm a bastard from the start
And I've kept some pretty people
In the hollow of my heart
So spill me all your secrets
I'll sell you off for parts
I'll warm your bed, I'll pull your threads
And fill your head with something dark, something dark
[Chorus]
And hush now, baby, don't you cry
I know you're singing deep inside
I broke your wings so you won't fly
You're mine, you're mine, you're mine, you're mine
Bluebird
[Verse 3]
So fill me up with silver
And I'll sing one just for you
And perhaps you'll meet the gambler
And perhaps you'll meet the fool
And if you listen closely
You'll even get the truth
So enjoy the show, I'll let you go
It's all I own, these empty rooms, empty rooms
We'll see you very soon
I'll see ya
[Chorus]
So hush now, baby, don't you cry
I know you're singing deep inside
Your broken wings'll never fly
You're mine, you're mine, you're mine, you're mine
Bluebird
[Outro]
And it's only a story, it's only a story
It's over, don't worry, it's only a story
It's only a story, it's only a story
Just say it, I'm sorry, just say it, just say it
I'm s–
