[edit]
leave me alone is all that I say
when I have nothing in me to give away
a purple martin in her
house, she hollers at me
why be inhuman ? why be like me ?

chorus:
like so many robins, like so many doves
like so many lovebirds with so many loves
like the songs of the bobwhite
without any words
when we are inhuman we're one with the birds

at six in the morning you
rise from the pillow
stand steaming above me; I slumber below
I'm one with the blanket
laying fragrant and loose
you're one with a whipporwill,

chorus

so tweet with me and widely spread
your olive wings: embrace my head
fly with me 'til we are dead
and one with the birds

like so many seagulls
like so many hawks
like so many thrushes
and so many cocks
a swallow will tell you without using
misleading
heartrending words
when we are inhuman we're one with the birds
"when we hide our feelings we
may as well fly away"

Will Oldham biography

Will Oldham, born December 24, 1970, in Louisville, Kentucky, is an American singer, songwriter, and actor. For most of the '90s (1993-1997), Oldham was the mastermind behind Palace Music, a country-rock group that recorded under a variety of names, including Palace Brothers, Palace Songs, Palace Music, and simply Palace.

The only constant in Palace was Oldham, and he would often record as a solo artist under the Palace name. Joya, Oldham's first album as a solo artist, was slightly different in style than Palace, boasting a slightly darker and somber tone. Like all the Palace records, Joya was released on the Drag City Label to positive critical notices and a moderately successful cult following.

Although the subsequent album, I See a Darkness, was attributed to Bonnie "Prince" Billy, (another of Olham's pseudonyms), Oldham used his given name for releases, including "Ode Music" and "Guarapero: Lost Blues 2."
