Bird on a Wire

[Verse 1]
Hurt like a bird on a wire, you got cursed
You got burned, something that no one deserves
It's broken your wings, you forgot how to sing
All the trouble it brings, trouble that it brings

[Chorus 1]
For the first time in your life you're coming home
You can feel the strength returning to your bones

[Verse 2]
Caught in a trap of desire, you got lost
You got shot with a bow and arrow to the heart
You fashion your life like a battered wife
Got some wood and a knife, wood and a knife

[Chorus 2]
For the first time in your life you'd make a home
You'd work your fingers right down to the bone
