Willi Carlisle - Jaybird

(Verse 1)
Well, you tried and you tried but you never got better
The cops got confused by your suicide letter
Not outwards but inwards
You used too many big words
It's no surprise your body never was found
I find your body all over this town

(Chorus 1)
Oh hey, Jaybird
Well, you finally found home
You're a long time running
Now you're long time gone
Hey, Jaybird
I'm doing just fine
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire

(Verse 2)
I swear I saw your spirit flying up above me
Still thinking how you disappointed everybody
The red rage of doomsday came to your lips
But you never had the guts to be the protagonist
No Dungeons & Dragons protagonist

(Chorus 2)
And hey, Jaybird
Well, you finally found home
You're a long time running
Now you're long time gone
Hey, Jaybird
I'm doing just fine
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire

(Verse 3)
So wipe clean the slate and roll away the stone
The day has evil enough on its own
I see the Jaybird sitting on his trash can throne
Oh, who am I to sing before I know the song?
I'm always gonna sing before I know the song
Oh, who am I to sing before I know the song?
I'm always gonna sing before I know the song

(Chorus 3)
Oh hey, Jaybird
Well, you finally found home
You're a long time running
Now you're gone, gone, gone
Hey, Jaybird
I'm doing just fine
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire
My head is a wreck and my chest's on fire
