Ovenbird Lyrics

Stray cats running free

Through the leaves and

Through the breeze

All gone just like they were

Never, ever there

And I can't help but look

Or stare, reading a book

As the wind dances

Through your wavering hair

And I'm glad I stuck around

And I'm glad that I am still

Here

In my present state

I broke and buried my slates

Of the past lives that could've been

Friends

And I built myself a nest

A place I could confess

In a song for all my

Friends

And I know it's just a song

Sort of short and uncouth

And I know it's just a song

But I swear to you

It's the truth
