Don't want to make you glad
Don't want to make you sad
Or feel your dream was a lie
Your little feather smile
Floating through the aisles
Feel our dreaming was a lie

If you ask for sure
One day you'll ask for more
You don't need to ask at all

Do your letters scroll
From underneath your claws?
Can you read between the lines?
With your eagle eyes
You can see for miles
Feel our dreaming was a lie

If you ask for sure
One day you'll ask for more
You don't need to ask at all

You don't need me all the time
You don't hold me after dark
You don't whisper when you lie
But you can skip the middle part

I don't need a weather vane
To tell that we're set for rain
Can't you see it's all the same

I can't hear the people crying
Through the sound of all the lying
Never needed anyone

You don't need me all the time
You don't hold me after dark
You don't whisper when you lie
But you can skip the middle part

Don't want to make you glad
Don't want to make you sad
Or feel your dream was a lie
