Song Lyrics

History's made its mark in anger
As everybody knows it's what we do
It's nothing new

The next chords struck are fault and failure
And we both know the finger points on cue
There's blame for two

Do you really want him coming newo'
Do you really think it's coming back to you'
Hold as the world stop spinning with that writing on the wall

You're neither newo
You'll be cushion just enough to break my fall
Why don't you cry 'cause right there, baby in the path
'Cause if you want it all

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby
He's coming home for you've been such a liar
Hide your feathers near your back porch
Maybe to open up, to cry your sorry eyes out

There's a scream outside your window
I'm only here to make my peace with you
There's something new

Oh, it was our time, feeding out lines
If I could do things different, what would I choose'
Oh, don't you cry, mama, please, don't cry, mama
Oh, don't you cry, no, no

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby
He's coming home for you've been such a liar
Hide your feathers near your back porch
Maybe to open up, to cry your sorry eyes out

No other could wait for a lover to erase
Boy, when there's no more room for love
You sail her off to the shores

No other could wait for a lover to erase
Boy, when there's no more room for love
You sail her off to the shores

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby
He's coming home for you've been such a liar

Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby
He's coming home for you've been such a liar
Hide your feathers near your back porch
Maybe to open up, to cry your sorry eyes

Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love
Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Oh, don't you cry, mama, oh, don't you cry, no, no

Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love
Wait a minute, little back porch lady
Oh, don't you cry, mama, oh, don't you cry, no, no
