The Jub-Jub Bird

Try as I do to let somebody in
Well I never know where to begin

But whenever I hear your name a mist comes down over my eyes
The burden of hiding my shame it grows weak and eventually dies, then it dies

And what can I say
If confession won't send them away
These demons inside are refusing to die
I hope against hope but they stay
And I'll disprove all that you've heard
The short coming's up of their long words
The chattering of little birds
Now hormonal suppression kicks in
And I'm lost in the scent of your skin
And it hits like a left to the chin

But whenever truth starts to ring a mist comes down over my eyes
The pain and the guilt that it brings loses faith in its host and then dies,
Then it dies

But whenever I hear your name a mist comes down over my eyes
The burden of hiding my shame it grows weak and eventually dies,
Then it dies
And what can I say
If confession won't send them away
These demons inside are refusing to die
I hope against hope but they stay
