Birds Lyrics by Elton John

Birds Lyrics

    There's some things i don't have now
    Some things i don't talk about
    These things are between myself and i
    In my thick skull the joker hides

    There's consequences i'm scared to taste
    Cold hard truths i can't face
    These days are different than the past
    Reflections change in the looking glass

    And everywhere i look there's something to learn
    A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn
    A hatful of quarters and a naked song
    Don't answer the question of where we belong

    How come birds
    Don't fall from the sky when they die?
    How come birds
    Always look for a quiet place to hide
    These words
    Can't explain what i feel inside?
    Like birds i need a quiet place to hide

    These independent moves i make
    This confidence i try to fake
    You can hear the beating of my heart
    But not a feather falling in the dark

    And everything i hear never makes any sense
    Another old prophet perched on the fence
    A cupful of pencils and a self help guru
    Don't answer the question of what i am to you
