The Cardinal And I letra

I saw a cardinal and wanted it to change my life
But it's just a bird
We share the lines of infinite direction
But chose cannon into wall

I know that if I had the cardinal's wing
A light would shine on everything and we'd be golden

Fluorescent skies of palest skin
I survive by stealing time from pipedreams hidden deep behind my eyes
It's a curse that we share as we drone on
We are fruitless, drained of life

I know that if I had the cardinal's wing
A light would shine on everything and we'd be golden
The cardinal and I are the same and we're running out of days
Flightless, born into a dying tree

I always hitch my name to the wrong star
But I prefer stars once they've fallen

Dissolve like daylight

I should be spinning planets on my fingertips
He should be miles high
I could be God, He'd be my heart and we'd be rid of all of this
Unforgiving, hopelessly we drift

Dissolve like daylight
