The Buttertones
Let the Songbird Drink
[Verse 1]
I'll break the hourglass
Roll around in it's cool smooth sand
Reflecting all the grizzly past
They're checking in my chest
Left me long ago as I chose my past
(Let the songbird drink)
[Pre-Chorus]
This heart will sing again
Want to follow night before the dawn
I so long to hear the song
(Let the songbird drink)
Punch with a broken beak
Feel the fangs pierce your neck
Just another drop
[Chorus]
Pleasures falling slowly round the auburn
(Let the songbird drink its water)
Ashes floating from a burning tree
[Pre-Chorus]
Sleepwalk on sour ground
Walk, walk, walk, walk
It's not sound, no church bells underground
[Chorus]
Pleasures falling slowly round the auburn
(Let the songbird drink its water)
Ashes floating from a burning tree
Redeem a faithful heart
So broken, hear the locks
[Outro]
The church bells ring again
The church bells ring again
The church bells ring again
Let the songbird drink
(Let the songbird drink)
