We tell each other a little about our sorrows,
And I see all that's left unsaid flutter around like sparrows
You say "it's really hard for me to be vulnerable"
You think it's easy for me, there's still so much that you don't know
You said that you were going to call at 8:15 and then you did
You didn't know the stomach ache that I'd been having
And then, we spent the whole evening

If we f*ck up, it's cause we made a sudden move and scared them
So I hold my breath, and I try to keep myself from asking
If we f*ck up, it's cause we made a sudden move and scared them
So I hold my breath, and I try to keep myself from asking
"Do you see them? Do you see them too?"
"Do you see them? Do you see them too?"

We keep each other at arm's length to give them space,
And I feel the hesitant wind of their wings on my face
You say "at our age, it gets harder to be hopeful"
You think it's easy for me, that's cause you don't know me at all
You said "we're going to see each other when I get back", and then we did
You didn't know I didn't believe a word you were saying
And then we spent the whole weekend
Birdwatching

Fingers interlocking, are you close to your parents? Do you have any free time this week?
There's a coffee pod for you on the kitchen table,
Stay as long as you want, slam the door when you leave
I don't like the left side of my face so I walk on your left, always
Favourite corners, innocent lies, dark circles, morning skies
You're looking like the intro to my favourite film,
Delicate, mournful, gripping
Slipping, tripping, falling,
Slipping, tripping, falling
