Cover art for Mockingbird lyrics by Rob Thomas

In “Mockingbird,” a couple decides that happiness comes in falling apart, not staying together. The up-tempo beat belies the fact that “there’s nothing happy about that one at all,” Thomas says. They got lost and they have nowhere to go, so they should just fall where they are and see what happens. They tried everything to be happy and none of it worked and they just feel stuck. They want to be together but everything is going against them. He wants to help her, but nature and everything else wants them to be apart. And they tried everything nut the Mockingbird won't sing.
