ladybird - mirabai kukathas lyrics

Loading...

ladybird, ladybird
fly away home
your library’s on fire and your books will all burn
the invaders and zealots
set it aflame
the fire is spreading and can’t be contained

and my lungs are filling with smoke

my mother had no cure for the world of sorrow and sin
my father had no vast library for me to seek refuge in
i sip sickness and spit sugar instead

books don’t grow on trees
but fires sure do
they’re a dime a dozen
here’s a dollar just for you
and a loaf of burning bread

so ladybird, ladybird
fly away home
your city is on fire and your buildings will burn
the glue and the whiskey set it aflame
the fire is sprеading and can’t be contained

and my throat is closing from smoke
my mothеr’s limbs were made of wood
and she cried tears of rain
burning up her body to wash away my pain
and sometimes she was too late

dolls don’t grow on trees
but fires sure do
you’ll see them in your dreams
and when you come to
such shall be our fate

so ladybird, ladybird
fly away home
your planet is on fire
and your forests will burn
the greed and glory set it aflame
the fire is spreading and can’t be contained

and i’m allergic to smoke

so ladybird, ladybird
fly away home
your house is on fire and your children will burn
the invaders and zealots set it aflame
the fire is spreading and can’t be contained
but i’m used to breathing smoke
