How do you see with those prying eyes
Under the veil of an azure sky?
I've been wondering how you sleep at night
When whispers of freedom are out of sight
The shadows on walls, the notes that you keep
The secrets you hold, the trust that you breach
Birds are spies today (they watch and they prey)
In every word we say (they hover, they sway)
Veiled truths embark on wings unseen
No place to hide from the menacing machine
I've been keeping all these thoughts so tight
In a world where the wrongs turn into right
The tales we believe, the lies we repeat
No room for deceit when under their feet
Birds are spies today (they watch and they prey)
In every word we say (they hover, they sway)
The walls, they listen, hold every tone
We're never really alone
In the silence, our souls betray
Tomorrow's whispers end today
Birds are spies today (they watch and they prey)
In every word we say (they hover, they sway)
