There's a mountain in my mouth I don't what I'm saying
There's a splinter in my eye, Don't know who I am betraying
And time will heal these wounds But no one can tell me when
Last night I needed God, Baby I just needed a friend
But I didn't know this bird of prey
I didn't know this bird of prey
would be circling every day
I've seen the lightening strikes over the eastern seas
I've roamed the frozen tundras and felt the arctic freeze
I've touched the morning dew under the London sun
I've been a refugee walking on the war scorched sand
But I didn't know this bird of prey
I didn't know this bird of prey
would be circling every day
Did Jesus make these rivers to drown all the sinners
To drown all the sinners, Drown all the sinners
Well, I've been waiting for him a thousand frozen winters,
A thousand frozen winters, a thousand frozen winters
But I didn't know this bird of prey
I didn't know this bird of prey
would be eating my bones away
Are you going back to rehab, are you patching up your bleeding heart with pills
Or are you going back to vegas with your rolled up twenty dollar bills
But I didn't know this bird of prey
I didn't know this bird of prey
would be eating my life away
