Silver

I've always known an anger, and I've always known a shame
I felt it like a hunger before I knew my name
I'm just an empty promise, with nothing much to say
So fill me up with poison, and pour me down the drain

Yeah, I was crooked from the cradle, I'm a bastard from the start
And I kept some pretty people in the hollow of my heart
So spill me all your secrets, I'll sell you off for parts
I'll warm your bed, I'll pull your threads and fill your head

With somethin' dark
Somethin' dark

And hush now, baby, don't you cry
I know you're singin' deep inside
I broke your wings, so you won't fly
You're my-, you'rе my-, you're my-
You're my bluebird

So fill me up with silver, and I'll sing one just for you
And perhaps you'll meet the gambler, and perhaps you'll meet the fool
And if you listen closely, you'll even get the truth
So enjoy the show, I'll let you go, it's all I own

These empty rooms
Empty rooms
I'll see ya very soon
I'll see ya

So, hush now, baby, don't you cry
I know you're singin' deep inside
Your broken wings will never fly
You're my-, you'rе my-, you're my-
You're my bluebird

Ah, it's only a story, it's only a story
It's over, don't worry, it's only a story
It's only a story, it's only a story
Just say it, I'm sorry, just say it, just say it, I'm s-
