Pigeon Hold Lyrics

We no longer fly

We used to own the sky

We no longer fly

Conspicuously by

We no longer fly

Or settle in your eye

We no longer fly

No longer occupy

We no longer sing

With hopeful hearts in Spring

We no longer sing

Throughout the evening

Or bring our young to wing

We no longer sing

No longer anything

You can't get out unless you're let out

You can't get up unless you're let up

You can't get down unless you're let down

I guess we let you down

We no longer fly

I got you in my pigeon hold

No longer occupy

You won't break free of my pigeon hold

We no longer sing

I got you in my pigeon hold

No longer anything

You won't break free in my pigeon hold

I've got you deep in a hole

River of feathers from Horizon to Horizon

Weaves and bends for days on end across a flooded sky

Magnificent murmuration significant sussuration

Opportunity for occupation unmitigated exploitation

Will my stool pigeon hold

I am in control

Welcome to the fold

I am in control

Your life's been bought and sold

I am in control

Welcome to the fold

I am in control of your life

Greed loves commodity

And this meaty markets hot

But stock has been declining

With a bird in every pot

I'm killing you to make my living

I'm killing you to keep me fed

I'm sleeping like a baby

I'm killing you to make my bed

Will my stool pigeon hold

I am in control

Welcome to the fold

I am in control

Your life's been bought and sold

I am in control

Welcome to the fold

I am in control of your death
