Here Are the Lyrics to Billie Eilish’s ‘Birds of a Feather’

While “Lunch” was the lead single from Billie Eilish‘s most recent album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, the project’s second single “Birds of a Feather” has left a even bigger impression.

The melancholy midtempo hit — which has so far peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 — got its biggest look when Eilish performed it at the closing ceremony for the 2024 Summer Olympics, playing the song from Long Beach in August to signal the Games’ handover from Paris to Los Angeles is 2028. The track closed 2024 as Spotify’s most-streamed song of the year and is nominated for three Grammys at the Feb. 2 awards show, including in two of the Big Four categories: record and song of the year.

Below, find the full lyrics of “Birds of a Feather,” written by Eilish with her brother and longtime collaborator Finneas.

(I want you to stay)

I want you to stay
‘Til I’m in the grave
‘Til I rot away, dead and buried
‘Til I’m in the casket you carry
If you go, I’m goin’ too, uh
‘Cause it was always you (alright)
And if I’m turnin’ blue, please don’t save me
Nothin’ left to lose without my baby

Birds of a feather, we should stick together, I know
I said I’d never think I wasn’t better alone
Can’t change the weather, might not be forever
But if it’s forever, it’s even better

And I don’t know what I’m cryin’ for
I don’t think I could love you more
It might not be long, but baby, I

I’ll love you ’til the day that I die
‘Til the day that I die
‘Til the light leaves my eyes
‘Til the day that I die

I want you to see, hmm
How you look to me, hmm
You wouldn’t believe if I told ya
You would keep the compliments I throw ya
But you’re so full of shit, uh
Tell me it’s a bit, oh
Say you don’t see it, your mind’s polluted
Say you wanna quit, don’t be stupid

And I don’t know what I’m cryin’ for
I don’t think I could love you more
Might not be long, but baby, I
Don’t wanna say goodbye

Birds of a feather, we should stick together, I know (’til the day that I die)
I said I’d never think I wasn’t better alone (’til the light leaves my eyes)
Can’t change the weather, might not be forever (’til the day that I die)
But if it’s forever, it’s even better

I knew you in another life
You had that same look in your eyes
I love you, don’t act so surprised
