Verse:
When there was a fallen bird. Everybody stayed awake
Everybody craned their heads. To see my changing shape
We must dance. Against a torchlight moon. Everybody knows it s true
Ship that sailed. On its deck we stand.
And I comb my hair. Pray to see. Do not take us down.
We made of stone. But we are not hollow. Everybody knows it s true.
Chorus:
Not in my life we must
There, they re rich enough
From the shadow to the tongue
Everybody wants to burn
But the cost is just the words I crucified my own
Everybody knows it s true
Repeat for the rest of the verses choruses. The repetition part at the end follows
the verse pattern.
