lyrics

"I want my bird back!" she screamed into darkness,
holding the sheets with the hands she had raised.
Night would bring with it lucid and heartless
nightmares and memories of a day she created.

It takes place in preschool, while half a dozen classmates
eat her budgie in the lunch room off a torn paper plate.
"A-N-Y-O-N-E, can you hear me?! Give her back. Don't eat her!"

I'm sorry about your bird.

I guess that means the day that we met,
I was still young, but she still couldn't forget
the way the knives broke the wings,
use the fork to pry the beak, poke and prod and watch her squirm...

I'm sorry about your bird.

about

i am an electro-experimental rock act that tries to blend all the styles that inspire me together in a cohesive and captivating way. i consider myself much more a storyteller than a songwriter, but i've still got a lot to learn about doing either.
