Like Bird and Beast (feat. Cathy Davey)

from Fur E​.​P. by The Late David Turpin

about

Taken from the album "We Belong Dead".

lyrics

Like a little bird, I take fright and fly away / Spread my boney wingspan when I really want to stay / Like a summer swallow, I've got a trail I follow / But oh, to be mute and free... / Like a digging mole, I put my face beneath the clay / Hide my eyes from all above when I'm so blind anyway / My humming claws will hollow a tunnel down I'll follow / But oh, to be mute and free / Oh, to be like bird and beast can be / Let me be, then leave me be.
