Amanda Shires - White Feather Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a field in Ohio, I changed into a scarecrow's clothes
To learn some of the secret songs he knows
I ran through the day and into the night
To be the one doin' the frightening, it's freein', I suppose

[Chorus]
Could be learned behavior to fold and call it failure
'Cause you're terrified of showin' your hand
I think you feel safer mumbling your prayers
To a God you don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand

[Verse 2]
In a pool of water, I saw my reflection sink low
And a vision of our future rose
We're drownin' in diamonds borrowed and charged
On a boat with no compass or a sky with no stars

[Chorus]
It could be learned behavior to fold and call it failure
'Cause you're terrified of showin' your hand
I think you feel safer mumbling your prayers
To a God you don't understand
You don't understand
You don't understand
[Chorus 2]
Jesus can't stop laughin', if he could he'd just start cryin'
Sings "You hear me, girl, I know you can"
It's easy to be quiet and easy to be silent
When you're afraid of what you don't understand
What you don't understand
What you don't understand

[Verse 3]
I sat back in the grass inside a galaxy of gnats
And I let the bats in my brain loose
I could see clearly a raven landing near me
Wavin' a white feather, calling for a truce
