lyrics

Verse 1

You're proud you're loud
you can't wake up from yesterday
enchanted love, you lay face down in the dust
one thing you said to me you know it really stuck
now crows are pecking at your feet
pecking at your feet

Verse 2

To speak less loud
as I get older it gets harder
to think about
a common conversation starter
now run with it
the words you choose to get you further
while crows are pecking at you feet
pecking at your feet

Chorus

Your ship sales north and you reed your poems loud
but you're scared to check the birds nest
you show off and teach your friends to blow off
the man behind the hammer hits
the man behind the Hamer hits

Verse 3

To speak less loud
as I get older it gets harder
to think about
a common conversation starter
now run with it
the words you choose to get you further
while crows are pecking at you feet
pecking at your feet

Chorus

Your ship sales north and you reed your poems loud
but you're scared to check the birds nest
you show off and teach your friends to blow off
the man behind the hammer hits
the man behind the Hamer hits
