“Suicide Birds” is a song by Mars Argo, featured on their debut album Technology is a Dead Bird. It recounts Mars' experience seeing a bird flying into a window when she was younger and the despair and strange nostalgia this memory brings, along with her own desire to be free. Both suicide and birds...
[Verse 1]
She was feeling faint when the smoke hit
Dizzy with the smell of perfume
Hiding from her family that she missed
Cold and all alone in her room
[Chorus]
The bird flew into the window
And he heard the same song in our heads
I often wonder what it would feel like to be free again
Free again
[Verse 2]
We were building courses for horses
Make believe with me by your side
She grew up a week before I did
My mother said that it wasn't right
[Chorus]
The bird flew into the window
And he heard the same song in our heads
I often wonder what it would feel like to be free again
Free again
[Bridge]
Memories fade
But they bring you back to the good old days
But the good old days will never be the same
I sang the song I wrote for you yesterday
But, you didn't hear it
You didn't hear it anyway
[Outro]
Anyway, oh
Anyway
Anyway, oh
Anyway
It's just the good
It's just the good old days
