You're taking it the wrong way
The scars in your eyes
From all the light
I'm shining down on anything
Unfortunate sun
Descended from unrealistic expectations
Mistaken to think you could have what you want
No, that's not how your mama raised you
Flash a new sign across the sky

The starling murmuration
Shifting to the neighborhood song
Driving all your days down
The starling murmuration

Nobody hates you like you hate yourself
They're all busy, too
To win something else
Nobody tagging you with anything
Unfortunate son
Descended from unrealistic expectation
Mistaken to think you could have what you want
No, that's not how your mama raised you
A flash in the sky, flashing you by

The starling murmuration
Shifting to the neighborhood song
Driving all your days down
The starling murmuration
