white feather - amanda shires lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
in a field in ohio i change into a scarecrow’s clothes
to learn some of the secret songs he knows
i ran through the day and into the night
to be the one doin’ the frightenin’; it’s freein’, i suppose

[chorus 1]
could be learned behavior
to fold and call it failure
’cause you’re terrified of showin’ your hand
i think you feel safer
mumblin’ your prayers
to a god you don’t understand
you don’t understand
you don’t understand

[verse 2]
in a pool of water i saw my reflection sink low
and a vision of our future rose
we’re drownin’ in diamonds borrowed and charged
[on a boat?] with no comp-ss or a sky with no stars

[chorus 1]
it could be learned behavior
to fold and call it failure
’cause you’re terrified of showin’ your hand
i think you feel safer
mumblin’ your prayers
to a god you don’t understand
you don’t understand
you don’t understand

[chorus 2]
jesus can’t stop laughin’
if he could he’d just start cryin’
sings “you hear me, girl, i know you can”
it’s easy to be quiet
and easy to be silent
when you’re afraid of what you don’t understand
what you don’t understand
what you don’t understand

[verse 3]
i sat back in the gr-ss inside a galaxy of gnats
and i let the bats in my brain loose
i could see clearly a raven landin’ near me
wavin’ a white feather, callin’ for a truce
