Cherry Ghost

Angel eyes, strike a match and set this city alight
All of my life I have been pondering the good done
doing right
Wont you be my mountain bird?
Forget all youve seen and heard here
Change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don?t go chasing that green back dollar
There was a time, when Id sing my songs with a
mouthful of rain
Now Im a cut price criminal
First goes your heart, there goes the shame
Wont you be my mountain bird?
Forget all youve seen and heard here
Change your name, change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don?t go chasing that green back dollar
Button up boy, toughen up boy, learn to destroy
But when all my tears have run dry
Oh who am I to tell my grief to
Fight, like a dog, with a big ass bone youll still be
a dog
Kid with a dumbbell ego, shootin at the neighbours
For a borrowed God
Wont you be my mountain bird?
Forget all youve seen and heard here
Change your name, change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don?t go chasing that green back dollar
The green back dollar
Who am I to tell my grief to?
