Talking Bird by Death Cab For Cutie
(Oh) My talking bird
Though you know so few words
They're on infinite repeat
Like your brain can't (1)________ up with your beak
And you're (2)________ in an open cage
So you're free to leave or stay
Sometimes you get confused
Like there's a hint that I am trying to give you
The longer you think, the less you know what to do
It's hard to see your way out
When you (3)________ in a house in a house
Cause you don't realize
That the windows were open the whole time
But (oh), my talking bird
Though your feathers are (4)________________ and furled
I'll love you all your days
Till the breath leaves your delicate frame
It's all (5)________ for you as long as you (6)____________ to stay
It's all (7)________ for you as long as you don't fly away
Though you know so few words
They're on infinite repeat
