lyrics

I'll tell you a story
About a grenade who
Had nothing to worry
Bout nothing to claim to
And when it was pouring
It sat in the rain to
Deliver its song to whoever's in range

And one day the raining
Was swiveling strange oh
The gutters were draining
But the wind had changed oh
And when the tornado
Lifted our grenade up
It crumpled like the cans piled up by the door

Half my age
Was spent just trying
To scratch that itch
In the back of my mind
If I kill the switch
Let fate decide
What red liquid
Makes up the tide
Just close your eyes
Let fate decide

Red wine, you seep down my spine
While I spin round a line that curls Q
Tonight we'll spill along the light
Of a sleepy little avenue

This mime's confusing but it's fine
I'm losing my mind thout you
If I could see you sometime
Then it would change a little thing or two
'Thout you
'Thout you
'Thout you
Without you

When the weather is stormy
I pour up a glass of
Whatever's in storage
And I drink only half of
It brings me a corner
Of a weathered old map of
Back when you helped me polish em off

And one day a straining
From deep in the grain of
The dusty old veins of
The wood it was made of
The house let a pained grin
Spread over its paint job
And shattered like the bottles broken on the floor

Half my age
Was spent just trying
To scratch that itch
In the back of my mind
If we kill the switch
Let fate decide
What red liquid
Makes up the tide
Let fate decide
Just close your eyes

Red wine, you seep down my spine
While I spin 'round a line that curls Q
Tonight we'll spill along the light
Of a sleepy little avenue

This mime's confusing but it's fine
I'm losing my mind 'thout you
If I could see you sometime
It'd change a little thing or two
'Thout you
'Thout you
'Thout you

about

Bird Senses Danger image

Bird Senses Danger Bellingham, Washington

Bird Senses Danger was born in Bellingham in 2017. Together they burned brightly until they famously exploded into a rainbow fireball of pop rock and were never seen again. In the ashes, a parting gift was found: "oh, to be a bug for one moment”. All they could’ve hoped is you enjoy what is left of this eclectic and electric indie rock band.

Jay, Calla, Gabe, Audrey and Jules. ... more
