Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight
Fell down from the sky and settled here
No more songs to sing
The silence is deafening
I should have seen it coming

My sworn enemy has his eye on me
So I keep my eye on him
Through the minor chords I am blind towards
The car he travels in

Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight
Fell down from the sky and settled here
No more songs to sing
The silence is deafening
I should have seen it coming

So I made no vow, the curb's my pillow now
As my body blows away
Will you sing your song, will you still fly on?
Far above my resting place

Bird on the roadside didn't see the headlight
Fell down from the sky and settled here
No more songs to sing
The silence is deafening
I should have seen it coming

Bird on the roadside, blue black and white
Didn't see the headlight and settled here
No more songs to sing
The silence is deafening
I should have seen it coming
