Blue October
"Sweet and Somber Pigeon Wings"


Sweet and somber pigeon wings
Can't we all recall when mama and papa
Were the sweet-toothed Christmas ball
A picturesque holiday family
Yeah of course I was small and I, all I knew was my grandpa
But i really didn't know him at all
I said,
My blood, my cousins, my calvalry
Yeah a piece of them gone but still I feel them strong
When i reach for David cause my Grandpa is gone
I shout out, I got love for the family
Yeah my mother is a doll and my brother can stop any brawl
But um, I pucker up "I'd like to kiss you all"
I said

But open your eyes, a new song cause the family is wrong
So don't lecture me, don't lecture me
But as far as i can see
A stepmom yeah the widow's palm is what's crushing me
And this family

It's beyond my time, yeah it's beyond my time
