Things That Scare Me Lyrics

Fluorescent lights engage
Blackbirds frying on a wire
Same birds that followed me to school When I was young
Were they trying to tell me something
Were they telling me to run

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e109851-neko_case~things_that_scare_me_lyrics.html ]
The hammer clicks in place
The world's gonna pay
Right down in the face of God and his saints
Claim your soul's not for sale
I'm a dying breed who still believes
Haunted by American dreams
