lyrics

i was reaching for my hip
i was holding when it hit
where's your common decency?
i haven't seen you recently
if lightning strikes we follow it
if thunder cries we call to it
you're my bright-winged girl
you're my bright-winged girl

i was calling to the craft
blinking slowly i was no weary captain
where's your common decency?
devices that you keep from me
the truth you said so openly
is not the truth that's broken me
you're my bright-winged girl
you're my bright-winged girl

if lightning strikes we follow it
if thunder cries we call to it
where's your common decency?
i haven't hurt you recently
you're my bright-winged girl
you're my bright-winged girl
