Poor Blind Birds

We live in a world we can't understand
 Poor blind birds, if we're anything
 And the world is not what it seems
 To poor blind birds
 ♪
 We were laughed out of Eden (so they say)
 In the wake of our first mistake
 And no one knew where the road was leading
 We spent our days running from maze to maze
 We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh
 Poor blind birds, if we're anything
 And the world is not what it seems, ooh-ooh
 To poor blind birds
 ♪
 Since you've been dead, these seven years
 I've seen you twice in a glass of red brandy and ice
 As the sky filled with golden spears
 And hung a wreath in the house of grief
 We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh
 Poor blind birds, if we're anything
 And the end is not the end, ooh-ooh
 For poor blind birds
 ♪
 So I'm leaving on the bus tonight
 Through the snow of Shenandoah
 In this long dream of life
 It's a lonely road that leads us home
 We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh
 Poor blind birds, if we're anything
 And the world is not what it seems, ooh-ooh
 To poor blind birds
 We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh
 Poor blind birds, if we're anything
 And the end is not the end, ooh-ooh
 For poor blind birds
