Magpies On Fire Lyrics

Magpies on fire
Makin' love like little wolves
Out on the porch can lead to medicine
Oh well, I'm game for anything at all

Scarecrow's a liar
Spins a yarn and no one ever checked it out
To see if it was real
Sold you the moon and now it's time to fall

All along it's like a bird
Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes i've been here before

All in all it's just the call
Of something wild beyond your room
There's a changing of the major chord
Your minor threat will do, love

My gun misfired
Shot myself instead, I guess I always knew
I'd be the one to lose
That screen door slams, time to make a move

Help me!

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes i've been here before

All in all it's like a bird
Who's trapped alone inside your cage, love
A bird who's born to live at half your age
Girl a bird who's never really had a say
Yeah!

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes i've been here before

Least of all she's like a bird
Who's now been freed from someone's cage
