Some birds have a sense of direction
That directly corresponds with
Magnets in their brain
So I turn a bitter green
At the thought that they
Might know their destination
All the while I’ll sit on
Balconies or stoops
Writing songs for you cause
Making plans has never been
My strong suit
With little to no discretion
Wielding her unwavering
Commitment to her
Job and family
She is reassured that boy
Is nothing but trouble
But all the while she sticks around
Hoping for something special
She’s been loved in the shadows
For way too long
Fifa tries
But there’s no sense in this
It’s just like pretty girls
To demand much attention
But I’ll be the first to admit defeat
So let’s pretend I have the words
The necessary qualities to say
It’s time tested I say it’s guaranteed
That:
I could love you relentlessly
Some birds have a sense of direction
That directly corresponds with
Magnets in their brain
So I turn a bitter green
At the thought that they
Might know their destination
