Lyrics of The bird and the worm

He wears his heart safety-pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows
Shot down by strangers whose glances can cripple
The heart and devour the soul

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath after death
Terrified of what's inside to save his life
He crawls like a worm from a bird
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind, the way pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind
Midday delusions of pushing this out of his head
Maybe out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath after death
Terrified of what's inside to save his life
He crawls like a worm
(all alone)
Crawls like a worm from a bird

(all alone)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(all alone)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(all alone)
Crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

All he knows
If he can't relieve it it grows
And so it goes
He crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

And he crawls like a worm
He crawls like a worm
He crawls like a worm
Crawls like a

Out of his mind, the way pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath after death
Terrified at what's inside to save his life
He crawls like a worm from a bird

All alone
He's holding his breath after death
(holding his breath after death)
Terrified to save his life
He crawls like a worm
(crawls like a worm)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(crawls like a worm)

(all alone)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(all alone)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(all alone)
Crawls like a worm
(worm!)
Crawls like a worm
(worm!)
Crawls like a worm from a bird

(all alone)
(all alone)
(all alone)
(all alone)
