You're like the air, lips red cheeks are fair
Girl you're a bird floating a – way
What can I do to make you stay?
You're like a ghost, nobody knows, nobody knows
Danger comes to steal your face
Can't I build you a safe place?
Who shot the bird down?
Crushed your ribs stole your crown?
Buried you deep under ground?
You're like the silence, drifting through my darkest night
Open my eyes and you'll be gone
Though I've waited for so long
You're like a ghost, nobody knows, nobody knows
Danger comes to steal your face
Can't I build you a safe place?
Who shot the bird down?
Crushed your ribs stole your crown?
Buried you deep under ground?
Who shot the bird down? Who shot the bird down?
Crushed your ribs stole your crown?
Buried you deep under ground?
Who shot the bird down? Who shot the bird down?
Crushed my ribs stole my crown?
Buried me deep under ground?
You're like the air, lips red cheeks are fair
Girl you're a bird floating a – way
What can I do to make you stay?
Who shot the bird down?
