The Bird and the Worm

He wears his heart safety-pinned to his backpack His backpack is all that he knows Shot down by strangers Whose glances can cripple The heart and devour the soul All alone, he turns to stone While holding his breath half to death Terrified of what's inside To save his life, He crawls like a worm from a bird Crawls like a worm from a bird Out of his mind, the weight pushes him, whispering Must've been out of his mind (Out of his mind) Mid-day delusions of pushing this out of his head May be out of his mind (Out of his mind) All alone, he turns to stone While holding his breath half to death Terrified of what's inside To save his life, he crawls like a worm (Crawls like a worm!) Crawls like a worm from a bird (Crawls like a worm!) (All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird (All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird (All alone) Crawls like a worm Crawls like a worm from a bird All he knows If he can't relieve it, it grows (All alone) And so it goes (And so it goes) He crawls like a worm Crawls like a worm from a bird And he crawls like a worm He crawls like a worm He crawls like a worm Crawls like a Out of his mind The weight pushes him, whispering Must've been out of his mind All alone, he turns to stone While holding his breath half to death Terrified of what's inside, To save his life, He crawls like a worm from a bird All alone He's holding his breath half to death (Holding his breath half to death) Terrified, to save his life He crawls like a worm (He crawls like a worm!) Crawls like a worm from a bird (Crawls like a worm!) (All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird (All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird (All alone) Crawls like a worm Crawls like a worm Crawls like a worm from a bird All alone All alone All alone
