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 mockingbird 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 mockingbirds
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 mockingbird 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
i have learnt time will tell years will pass tears will fall
don’t be fooled fed by words their sweet songs
mockingbirds
