[Verse 1] Woke up on the rooftop Neon clouds in the noon-day gray Chrome beaks on the power lines All turned Staring my way Feathers made of circuit boards Eyes like little blue moons They tilt their heads in unison Clicking out a tune [Pre-Chorus] Are you friend Are you hunter Are you here to erase Feathered little UFOs Falling into place [Chorus] Robot pigeons from outer space Coming down slow Gonna take you away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo Silver shadows above my face Static in the sky Then I’m drifting away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo [Verse 2] They tap-dance on the balcony Drop a map in my tea-stained cup Shows a spiral through the ceiling Says “kid Your time is up” They blink Morse code lullabies Soft and strangely kind I feel my body getting light Peeling from my mind [Pre-Chorus] Am I lost Am I chosen Is this some kind of grace Little chrome-winged chariots Circling my place [Chorus] Robot pigeons from outer space Coming down slow Gonna take you away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo Silver shadows above my face Static in the sky Then I’m drifting away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo [Bridge] [Beat melts into half-time Vocals float and echo] Street turns to watercolor My name starts to dissolve Every flapping wing a doorway Every question starts to fall (fall) If I vanish in their orbit Would I miss this heavy skin Or just laugh as all the city Folds and folds back in [Chorus] Robot pigeons from outer space Coming down slow Gonna take you away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo (take me) Silver shadows above my face Static in the sky Then I’m drifting away Tiny metal hearts going hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo (hoo hoo hoo)
