Golden Bird

I was only holding out for another chance.
Running faster than my feet could take me, clear to the city's edge.
Told everybody that my mind was changing, that I never saw the story's end.
Down by the water, we were smoking by the old motel.
Is there another cure?
A magic golden bird?
Giving what your soul has earned?
Oh, how I'd LOVE to float upon it.
I found somebody that would give me comfort when i felt estranged.
I plant my poison in the flower garden, hoping that my roots won't take.
But every time that the seasons changing, when the sky puts on her coat of grey,
I can feel it creeping over, holing up inside my brain.
Is there another cure?
A magic golden bird?
Giving what your soul has earned?
Oh, how I'd LOVE to float upon it.
Is there a secret blowing that you've heard?
That gets you to the other world?
She's hiding in the summit but yer eyes ain't sure,
Quite how to adjust upon it.
