about

Yellow Cardinal by Laura Joy

Heard they found a yellow cardinal flying round down south
Seems these days I got yellow cardinals flying out of my mouth

Wrong color right shape
a wing flutters makes an earthquake
The truth can make your heart ache
when it’s freed sometimes

Heard there was another funeral at a school down south
Oh these days guns beat tongues, words don't seem so loud

take the noise take the rage
Shove it down till your stomach aches
Takes some kids half your age
to reach a tipping point

Ooooooooooooo

Well I heard something you said the other day and I don’t agree at all
Those words were shaped like knives and cut me down so small

Break em down break em out
What’s this really all about
I see you’re hurting and I’m here
Take my shoulder take my ear

Ooooooooooooo

Heard they found a yellow cardinal flying round down south
Seems these days we got yellow cardinals flying out of our mouths
