Lyrics

Mockingjay

I'm the Mockingjay, fighter of the opposite
Living on a holiday shopping spree
We can pretend to be ordinary
Lightweight preacher of nothing of significance
I share my dreams with all these idiots
I kiss you goodbye
Please tell I'm the answer
To all things good
You're everything I need to survive the revolution
The revolution

I'm the Mockingjay, fighter of the opposite
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay, fighter of the opposite
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay

I'll apologise to the authorities for
The love I gave, for
The molotovs, the soft touch
The snowflakes, the improvised
The prince of daylight
We are all the same
We are all the same

Beneath the duvets
Ashamed of what we said
Before this night ends
Before your love begins
When I burn this bridge I'll think of your face
And I'll bend the knee

I'm the Mockingjay, fighter of the opposite
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay, fighter of the opposite
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay

Bless your heart and take all the love I gave
Gave

I'm the Mockingjay, I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay, I'm the Mockingjay
I'm the Mockingjay
