One For The Mockingbird

I have learnt through all my past mistakes Not to let the hurdles sap my energy Time will tell and time is all it takes You won't see the bastards knock the running out of me And the band, they played one more song One for the mocking bird, they played one more song All the tears, they fell one by one All for the mocking-bird, they fell one by one Don't be fooled by those who feed you words They just twist and tighten up the tourniquet But the sweetest song of all the mocking-birds Couldn't hope to match one note of any song we played And the band, they played one more song One for the mocking bird, they played one more song All the dreams, they broke one by one All for the mocking-bird, they broke one by one What are you hiding from? Why do you lock the door? Open up the door! And the band, they played one more song One for the mocking bird, they played one more song All the dreams, they broke one by one All for the mocking-bird, they broke one by one I have learnt, time will tell, years will pass, tears will fall, Don't be fooled, fed by words, their sweet songs, Mocking-birds!
