lyrics

Dirtbird

The blow to my heart and my head
was worse than I had anticipated
It's still burning at the edges of
The crater that burst open when you took off
All I ever wanted was a sweet memory
All I ever got from you was bitter melancholy.

A swift kick in the balls of my already bruised ego
Cruelty has learned to fly, giving me vertigo
I thought that we could be friends
But how you dragged my soul through the dirt is hard to comprehend.
I thought we had cosmic telepathy
But you wouldn't even friendzone me.

Some people, they are just like birds, I said.
The moment they learn to fly, they shit on your head.
And you bring out the worst in me
But at least you bring out something.

My mouth is full of malice so I'm biting my tongue
But this dirtbird's song must not remain unsung.
I'm slowly waking up to the fact
That my affection for you was way too abstract
For you to appreciate
There's only so much a birdbrain can take.

‘Cause some people, they are just like birds, I said.
The moment they learn to fly, they shit on your head.
And you bring out the worst in me
But at least you bring out something.
Said at least you bring out something
Said at least you bring out something

Some people, they are just like birds, I said.
The moment they learn to fly, they shit on your head.
And you bring out the worst in me
But at least you bring out something.
Said at least you bring out something
Said at least you bring out me.

about

Agnes Milewski Vienna, Austria

Vienna based Agnes Milewski is the perfect artist for the post genre world, happier to be hopping generic boundaries and subverting expectation than nailing her colours to any one stylistic mast. She wanders through the same plaintive piano soundscapes as Tori Amos and the more commercially friendly end of the Kate Bush heyday as easily as she delivers an alt-folk vibe or a haunted pop atmosphere. ... more
