Lyrics

Candy says, I've come to hate my body

And all that it requires in this world

Candy says, I'd like to know completely

What all they discretely talk about

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly

over my shoulder

I'm gonna watch them pass me by

maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see

if I could walk away from me

Candy says, I hate the quiet places

That cause the smallest taste of what will be

Candy says, I hate the big decisions

That cause endless revisions in my mind

I'm gonna watch the bluebirds fly

over my shoulder

I'm gonna watch them pass me by

maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see

if I could walk away from me
