Take a walk on my coastline sweetly And see that I got broken parts They're feeding baby sharks It's a jagged coastline surely At my peak All my broken parts They're feeding baby sharks Though I don't dwell in dark I'm just a meadowlark I sing my sadness in broke poetry And I'm gone in a blur of violence and wings Take a walk in my prairie kindly And see that I got broken parts They're building matchstick barns It's a wild prairie baby At my feet All my broken parts They're building matchstick barns Though no brush fire starts I'm just a meadowlark I sing my sadness to bumblebees And I'm gone in a blur of diamonds and wings Take a walk in my city darlin' And see that I got broken parts They're feeding empty hearts It's a dirty city baby On my street All my broken parts They're feeding empty hearts I wish I could get smart I'm just a meadowlark I sing my sadness and go to sleep And I'm gone in a blur of eyelids and wings
