The nightbird

Fly home, everybody's waiting there's a spiral
Down into the basement, it's true
Try on all these different colors you can buy one
This one or the other one's for you

No one, no one is expecting you to go on
No one ever thought that you would leave
Is there someone, something that is troubling? I will find it
I think I heard something in the trees... in the trees

Kill the nightbird, kill the nightbird
That's been keeping me awake
I've been lending chase to find it in its tree
Climb up in the branches and send it on its way
So I can get some sleep

Is it the ocean, the ocean or the sky that you are seeing?
I know sometimes our eyes can be deceiving
Is there a reason for these disconnected
Feelings you are feeling?
When everybody knows
You should be sleeping, should be sleeping

Kill the nightbird, kill the nightbird
That's been keeping me awake
I've been lending chase to find it in its tree
Climb up in the branches and send it on its way
So I can get some sleep

Kill the nightbird, kill the nightbird
That's been keeping me awake
I've been lending chase to find it in its tree
Climb up in the branches and send it on its way
So I can get some sleep
