The Crow

love it or leave it
why do i need it?
how could i bequeath it?
never retrieve it

i have a calling
but i keep stalling
keep talking myself out of
but it’s not love
i’m going for freedom
no such thing as demons

don’t go // can’t you see how deep we go
without us // we are birds lost in the snow
flyin free // at the mercy of the ones who know
without me // in a straight line flies the crow

slippery habit
took years to grab it
choked it and stabbed it
no longer inhabit

i’m on a mission
but i’m in remission
superstition stops me tryin
she’s beguilin
i’m still relyin
on invible things yeah

don’t go // can’t you see how deep we go
without us // we are birds lost in the snow
flyin free // at the mercy of the ones who know
without me // in a straight line flies the crow

what do i want from
how can i be strong
hoping to live long
keeping a lid on

it’s time to spread wings
but i complicate things
the security this cage brings
keep me from things
carrion calling // carrion calling
drowning out

don’t go // can’t you see how deep we go
without us // we are birds lost in the snow
flyin free // at the mercy of the ones who know
without me // in a straight line flies the crow
