Ryan Adams Night Birds lyrics

Out under the stars, dodging them night cars, baby
'Cause when you gotta move, you gotta move
Whatever that it was, you were thinking of, lady
You're certainly not thinking of it, now

And night birds sing you an empty tune, yeah
In an empty house, in an empty room
In an empty moment, all the night birds sing
We were suppose to rise above but we sink into the ocean

I feel like a body stuffed into a trunk
From a million years of lying and getting drunk
The people here inside me, they are loud and in the night
They scream and smash the windows when they fight


And night birds sing you an empty tune, yeah
In an empty house, in an empty room
An empty feelings when it comes too soon
We were supposed to rise above, we were supposed to rise above

But we sink into the ocean
Into the ocean
Into the ocean
Into the ocean
