The Bird and the Worm - The Used

He wears his heart safety pinned to his backpack

His backpack is all that he knows

Shot down by strangers

Whose glances can cripple

The heart and devour the soul

All alone he turns to stone

While holding his breath half to death

Terrified of what’s inside

To save his life

He crawls like a worm from a bird

Crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind

The weight pushes him whispering

Must have been out of his mind

Mid-day delusions

are pushing this out of his head

Maybe out of his mind

Out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone

While holding his breath half to death

Terrified of whats inside

To save his life

He crawls like a worm

Crawls like a worm from a bird

(Crawls like a worm from a bird)

(Crawls like a worm from a bird)

(Crawls like a worm)

(Crawls like a worm from a bird)

All he knows

If he can’t relieve it grows

And so it grows

He crawls like a worm

Crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind

The weight pushes him whispering

Must have been out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone

While holding his breath half to death

Terrified of whats inside

To save his life

He crawls like a worm from a bird

All alone

He’s holding his breath half to death

(Holding his breath half to death)

Terrified

To save his life

He crawls like a worm

(Crawls like a worm)

Crawls like a worm from a bird

Crawls like a worm from a bird

Crawls like a worm from a bird

Crawls like a worm

Crawls like a worm

Crawls like a worm from a bird
