Derek Webb - Mockingbird lyrics

rate me

(vs. 1) there are days i don't believe the words i say like a life that i'm not living a song that i'm not singing but to you there are times that i believe i'm satisfied like an intimate connection despite this bad reception with you (pre-chorus) because i can't afford to pay for most of what i say so it's a lucky thing that the truth's public domain (chorus) and i am like a mockingbird i've got no new song to sing and i am like an amplifier i just tell you what i've heard oh, i'm like a mockingbird (vs. 2) and yes, it's true that i need this more than you like one whose name is many have mercy, please don't send me away (pre-chorus) and i'll do all i can to be a better man oh i'll clean up this act and be worse than we started (chorus)
