Dark Bird is Home
The Tallest Man on Earth

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

And so there were no higher mountains

It's all in your hand

Nelly was the future sea

And out sails the plan

And in this travel with no journey

I'm loose till I'm lying

Letting go mine to hell

What I'm keeping now

[Chorus 1]

And suddenly the day gets you down

But this is not the end, no this is fine

Still a tower's in the valley

Still winds down the stream

Still we're in the light of day

With our ghosts within

[Verse 2]

And there are many ways of sorrow

For just stepping out

Everyday a growlin' storm

But they're kind somehow

Fall in love but keep on falling

I held you for life

But letting go rope in hand

There's just leaving now

[Chorus]

And suddenly the day gets you down

But this is not the end, no this is fine

Still we're back in laughing memory

Still winds down the stream

Still we're in the light of day

With our ghosts within

[Verse 3]

And when there's no one on the bottom

You got there alone

Kicking up some dust to see

Where a wind could blow

And all the ways to ride a lightning

I've used up a few

And I just want you to be safe

As I thunder through

[Chorus]

And suddenly the day gets you down

But this is not the end, no this is fine

There still are towers in the valley

Still winds down the stream

Still we're in the light of day

With our ghosts within

[Outro]

No this is not the end and no final tears

That will lead to show

I thought that this would last for a million years

But now I need to go

Oh, fuck

[Instrumental]
