Wunderhorse - Silver Lyrics

Silver lyrics by Wunderhorse

I’ve always known an anger
And I’ve always known a shame
I felt it like a hunger
Before I knew my name
I’m just an empty promise
With nothing much to say
So fill me up with poison
And pour me down the drain

Yeah I was crooked from the cradle
I’m a bastard from the start
And I kept some pretty people
In the hollow of my heart
So spill me all your secrets
I’ll sell you off for parts
I’ll warm your bed
I’ll pull your threads
And fill your head

With something dark
Something dark

Hush now baby
Don’t you cry
I know you’re singing
Deep inside
I broke your wings
So you won’t fly
You’re mine, You’re mine
You’re mine, You’re mine
Bluebird

So fill me up with silver
And I’ll sing one just for you
Or perhaps you’ll meet the gambler
Or perhaps you’ll meet a fool
And if you listen closely
You’ll even get the truth
So enjoy the show
I’ll let you go, it’s all I own
These empty rooms
Empty rooms
I’ll see ya’ very soon
I’ll see ya’

So hush now baby
Don’t you cry
I know you’re singing
Deep inside
Your broken wings
Will never fly
You’re mine, You’re mine
You’re mine, You’re mine
Bluebird

It’s only a story
It’s only a story
It’s over, don’t worry
It’s only a story

It’s only a story
It’s only a story
Just say it, I’m sorry
Just say it, Just say I’m–
