Billie Eilish "Birds of a Feather" Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want you to stay
'Til I'm in the grave'
Til I ride away, dead and buried
'Til I'm in the casket you carried
If you go, I'm going too, oh
'Cause it was always you, oh
And if I'm turning blue, please don't save me
Nothing left to lose without my baby

[Refrain]
Birds of a feather, we should stick together
I know I said I'd never think I wasn't better alone
Can't change the weather, might not be forever
But if it's forever, it's even better

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know what I'm crying for
I don't think I could love you more
It might not be long, but, baby, I

[Chorus]
I'll love you 'til the day that I die
'Til the day that I die
'Til the light leaves my eyes
'Til the day that I die

[Verse 2]
I want you to see, oh
All you mean to me, oh
You wouldn't believe if I told ya
Who we would become, laments I wrote ya
But you're so full of sh-t, oh
Tell me it's a bit, oh
Say you don't see it, your mind's all brooding
Say you wanna quit, don't be stupid

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know what I'm crying for
I don't think I could love you more
Might not be long, but, baby, but I
Don't wanna say goodbye

[Chorus]
(Birds of a feather, we should stick together)
'Til the day that I die
(I know I said I'd never think I wasn't better alone)
'Til the light leaves my eyes
(Can't change the weather, might not be forever)
'Til the day that I die
But if it's forever, it's even better

[Post-Chorus]
How do you do
We had that same
I love you, don't act so surprised
