Buttons - Josh Pyke

In my mind, not enough birds have died
in the shadow of this once cast stone
And I´m not unwell, but I am ill at ease
with all the buttons still left to sew
through needles´ eyes, see me sharper than I see myself
So you should stitch me in to stop me from bleeding

And education can be fickle I think, sometimes the more you learn
the more you lose a sense of what you think you know,
about all the buttons still left to sew
and I´m outside myself more and more these days
So you should stitch my skin skin to stop me from bleeding

all over this fresh song and I,
acknowledge all the corners, and all the freshly painted walls,
that bear no former scars since they´re patched up and over now
But I was born of miners and I´m designed to chip away, tunnel in the dark

But why must it always come down to some unseen contender?
I don´t know
When hatchlings all we are, just battling the whitewash
birds above, sharks below
Though I feel empathy towards the ones who threaten me
I´d still leave them soft-shelled to the beaks of crows

But every now and then a tempest blows,
and the veneer I keep comes unsewn, but will you ever read me well?
I can only assume so
And I´m buoyant like a flotsam man, now relegated by the waves to land
They dry me like a brittle bone, paraded like a polished stone

Why must it always come down to some unseen contender?
I don´t know
When hatchlings all we are, just battling the whitewash
birds above, sharks below
Though I feel empathy towards the ones who threaten me,
I´d still leave them soft-shelled to the beaks of crows

So why must it always come down to some unseen contender?
I don´t know
When hatchlings all we are, just battling the whitewash
birds above, sharks below
Though I feel empathy towards the ones who threaten me,
I´d still leave them soft-shelled to the beaks of crows
And thats what you ought to know
I´d see them smashed on the reefs below
