Meadowlark Blues

[Verse 1]

Take a walk on my coastline sweetly

And see that I got broken parts

They're feeding baby sharks

It's a jagged coastline surely

At my peak

All my broken parts

They're feeding baby sharks

Though I don't dwell in dark

I'm just a meadowlark

I sing my sadness in broke poetry

And I'm gone in a blur of violence and wings

[Verse 2]

Take a walk in my prairie kindly

And see that I got broken parts

They're building matchstick barns

It's a wild prairie baby

At my feet

All my broken parts

They're building matchstick barns

Though no brush fire starts

I'm just a meadowlark

I sing my sadness to bumblebees

And I'm gone in a blur of diamonds and wings

[Verse 3]

Take a walk in my city darlin'

And see that I got broken parts

They're feeding empty hearts

It's a dirty city baby

On my street

All my broken parts

They're feeding empty hearts

I wish I could get smart

I'm just a meadowlark

I sing my sadness and go to sleep

And I'm gone in a blur of eyelids and wings
