Ian Rees - Feathers Lyrics

I peek inside cuz I
Can't find the limit on a
Way to hide all
The ways I'm feeling timid
It's a waste of time for
The irredeemable frozen eyes
They'll be your guide

The room is dark and
The lights are talking softly
We request a spark when
The vision fades around me
But it starts a fire
The irreversible burning eyes
Are looking wry

I hear the walls around me
They suddenly get ugly
A painting hanging just to fall
Who knew you had it in you?
Some days just really eat you
Trying to fit a shade of normal

I don't believe
There's a feather
Rising in me
You've got it wrong
You can't magnify
What's already gone
You can't magnify
What's already gone

We hang the drapes when
Our breathing gets erratic
But the monster grows 'til
It erupts from the attic
Its a repeat of all
The otherworldly broken eyes
But now they're mine

The panic doctor hits you
The punishment to refuse
A neighbor listens through the wall
Who knew you had it in you?
The will to shove it into
An unconvincing shade of normal

I don't believe
There's a feather
Rising in me
You've got it wrong
You can't magnify
What's already gone
You can't magnify
What's already gone
You can't magnify
What's already gone

I peek inside and
She's already sleeping
Found a place to hide where
She's guarded by her dreaming
The thoughts that wander
That hold you under
Record what you choose
To ignore

I don't believe
There's a feather
Rising in me
You've got it wrong
You can't magnify
What's already gone
You can't magnify
What's already gone
