[Verse 1]
You broke the fall the first night that I saw your hands shaking
I fibbed, "I wasn't thinking of it"
Just like my mom
Type 1 with a problem
Of losing your grip on the mind you live in

[Chorus]
You're everybody's baby bird
They worry 'bout you still
Your mama's eyes locking with mine
I'll try, you know I will

[Verse 2]
Many childish whims
What a flight to begin
All naiveté, no innocence
I grew tired once the carnival ended
Won't you be my friend?
Don't you care what I said?

[Chorus]
You're everybody's baby bird
They worry 'bout you still
All that I need, I'll find in me
I'll try, you know I will
[Bridge]
When you fucked up bad
I couldn't let you have it
I swallowed the pain and threw it up in the drain
I stopped smiling and I started to try to say something I mean
You didn’t think it was me

[Chorus]
You're everybody's baby bird
I made you mine for a time
You never wanted for me to be honest
When I leave I don't tell you why
