Mockingbird

By Derek Webb
From the Album Mockinbird

and there are days
I don't believe the words I say

Like a life that I'm not living
a song that i'm not singing but to you

and there are times
that I believe I'm satisfieid
like a intimate connection
despite this bad reception with you

cause I cant afford to pay
for most of what I say
so its a lucky thing
that the truth public domain

and I am like a mockingbird
I've got no new song to sing
and I am like an amplifier
I just tell you what I've heard
oh like a mockingbird

so yes its true
that I need this more than you
like one who's name is many
have mercy please don't send me away

Oh and I'll do all I can
to be a better man
Oh I'll clean up this act
and be worse than when we started

and I am like a mockingbird
i've got no new song to sing
and I am like an ampliflier
just tell you what I've heard
oh like a mockingbird

and I am like a mocking
i've got no new song to sing
and I am like an amplifier
I just tell you what I've heard

oh like a mockingbird
oh like a mockingbird
oh like a mockingbird

I think this might be my favorite song off the new album. It seems the most like the Caedmons-era Derek which I love(d) so much.
