Cory Hanson
Bird of Paradise
I dream myself tonight
A bird with wings of fire
My jaw was swollen tight
My jaw was swollen tight
I’d flown to every bar
Traveled on a withering star
You don’t know what it’s like
You don’t know what it’s like
Yet hold me in your arm
My memory’s razor sharp
Like broken glass in a foot
The light pushed through the dark
The light pushed through the dark
I’ll find you in the end
A light in the mirror
Your eyes painted on with dots
Your eyes painted on with dots
Yet hold me in your arm
