Our Lady Peace Naveed Lyrics
1.The Birdman

Hopelessly a man starts to feed your day
Once he was there you never looked back
How did you think that his words might just fade away
He seemed harmless enough so you let him in and now you'll pay
I can't see him but he's stalking my thoughts
How does it feel when you can't concentrate?
I just stare
All of your daydreams are a seesaw for him to play on
How does it feel when he calls your name
You can plug your ears but it's not the same
How does it feel when he pulls you back
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right, the birdman wouldn't lie
Nobody's wrong, nobody's right
But I just can't trust him tonight
How do you forget a stranger that plagues your days
We arm ourselves when there's nothing to fear, right?
Wrong
How does it feel when it comes to pass there's something there
But it's not quite right
How does it feel, does it make you mad?


2.Supersatellite

I've read the bible, I've read Dylan,
I'm reading people now
Because it's much more chilling
I sit on a satellite
With the stars made of gold
There's life through that hollow lens
I know supersatellite
I watch the traffic,
I find the seeds
There's one man in particular
Who's not what he seems
I can't focus in
On the lies in his head
He's convinced that his blood is blue
But it's red, supersatellite
Nothing dazzles me, I am in his dreams
Nothing is shocking, transparent human being
On the soul inside the world
Far better than the eye inside the mind
Fuck you, I am you, you hear me
Stop crying, stop crying


3.Starseed

I let go of the world that was holding
A passenger that could not fly
In search of souls
Souls in search of something
Let it go, let it slide
When I find out what went on
I'll bring it back
It won't be easy
They won't believe how a man
He could drown in a starseed
I hoped to find why this world wasn't glowing
Glowing it darkens as we end this ride
I've fallen back under the equator
I'm back inside, I'm back inside
When I find out what went on
I'll bring it back but it won't be easy
They won't believe the man he could
But I'd choose starseed over nothing
Nothing


4.Hope

Hope climbs atop of the piano
Reaching out towards the warmth of the sun
Some man tries to ask her down
But now maybe that's where she belongs
My God, she said,
I'm the sunflower who wants
My God, he said,
This woman is gone
Into the dark, is there anybody there
My God, she said,
He climbed up top to find that she was slipping
Let her go, let her go, let me go
How long must we leave before we're winning
They don't know, they don't know, they just don't know
If she can't be there, I know it's best that
Nothing is denied
If she can't be there it's best that
Everyone change sides

9.Julia

Can you see her standing there trying to find anywhere
There are floweres in her hand but she doesn't know why
Offered is advice to you but all you do is fake it
Mother, she's only yours tonight and she never cries mother,
I know there is hurt inside Julia
Drowning in her own visions,
She's begging the past to stay behind
There's a black cat in the night,
There's a black cat in the sky
Offered is advice to you, you left but I don't blame you
We're digging up the past to bury it one last time
I know there's pain inside that truth
But you just have to face it


10.Under Zenith

Maybe they'll come back again, maybe they're all gone
One day you'll find me sending their messages strong
Under your feet the city falls down so far the ground is sky
We're under zenith again,
It's healthy if not for long
Leave a little room for us to breathe
Much more than seven days and you've slipped too deep
Much stronger than sympathy,
Let your best friend pull back that leash
Sitting by a frozen man, someone somewhere has to cry
Were under zenith again let the cycle run we won't die
Leave a little room for us to breathe
I love how you let me fall
Under but not too far
I love how you let me fall
Only now I see where we are
Hold me
