Life is scary, shadows scare me Noises everywhere but I'm still young Balance steady with sky's are ready for I must need to jet and leave these crumbs Up is soft and down is hard Trees are scarce and so are yards So much to tear me all apart And steal the beat of my pigeon heart From the eggshell to the bandshell To the Shell station where rocks are thrown Nervous twitching always wishing for Soothing meadows I can call my own Seasons pa** with disregard Friends they vanish like morning stars It's much to tear me all apart And steal the beat of my pigeon heart Dive bomb at the sh** stone wars (hey hey hey) Making love in the trees (hey hey hey) Turn my back on my ailing brothers (hey hey hey) Save myself on the breeze, boy Rest my wings on your monuments (hey hey hey) Smile as the day departs (hey hey hey) Take a breath that shoots rushing promise (hey hey hey) Into the beat of my pigeon heart Pigeon heart I'd like to choke as morning smoke Drifts down from riverside factories Shake off the dust and see who's left of us Tucked up in the bridge concrete As we prepare to travel far Baker's alleys and distant parks You build your world so it don't fall apart Dance to the beat of my pigeon heart Dive bomb at the sh** stone wars (hey hey hey) Making love in the trees (hey hey hey) Turn my back on my ailing brothers (hey hey hey) Save myself on the breeze, boy Into the beat of my pigeon heart
