"The Buffalo And The Bird" lyrics - COURTNEY MARIE ANDREWS

You never speak the truth
You never say what you mean
Well, I never loved you more
Than when you set yourself free
No more visits to your bed
No more keeping charming things you've said
As a reward for working twice as hard
For only half of your heart
The buffalo and the bird, the stones, the caricature
The key around my neck is yours once again

For someone who wishes to be left lonely
You've sure gathered quite the exclusive group of company
Don't consider me, I'll leave you alone
I'll leave you be to dance around with your disease
You separate yourself, it seems an easy way out
A restless rhythmic routine
A habit of losing what you've found
But you promised in the past that you'd be around for me
A silly promise for the future
That you obviously could not keep
The love in a pack of cigarettes, the bracelet on your wrist
The key around my neck is yours once again

For someone who wishes to be left lonely
You've sure gathered quite the selective group of company
Don't consider me, I'll leave you alone
I'll leave you be to dance around with your disease
You don't need me to dance around with your disease
Oh to waltz around with your disease
Yeah, you will
