Pendulum - Jealous Of The Birds

Would you have me be your lover

In a house in Hydra, far

From the city life that smothers

And the lonely neon bars?

Would you have me walk the path of

Granite rock and purple thistle?

Can’t sing in tune with angels

Can’t smooth the grit and gristle

Oh to be what others are to me

Warm as blacktop

Fierce as the Baltic sea

Thoughtful as a cricket in a field

Kind as mothers

Whose love never yields

Would you have us be companions

Full of song like whippoorwills?

Would you crown me as your champion

Cresting over sandy hills?

We are more than lens-flare visions

On rolls of film from summer

We’re the sum of our decisions

Not pawns, not fools, or numbers
