Birds

I found a picture of us

With my hair sticking up

With your shirt in the wind

Someone's thumb on the lens

We were just throwing darts

Breaking bottles in the yard

I didn't know where to start

I will follow you down

I will follow you down

I can't carry you now

I took a walk on my own

Scattered seeds in the snow

Dust the dirt off my shoes

Paced a hole in my room

Scaring the birds outside

Circling your house at night

You didn't leave on the light

I will follow you down

I will follow you down

I can't remember the sound

I can't carry you now
