lyrics

Crow Black Night

Your arms make a circle like the sun
Your hands a snare but I won’t run
We bathe our bloody bodies until we come undone
Counting scarecrows, well the crow black night will come
The lights on the marquee are out
The werewolf’s licking blood from his snout
Just an empty tank of gasoline to show for the miles we’ve run
And that crow black night still will come

I didn’t look and you didn’t care
Our selfish love was all that we found there
With your arm through mine, and mine around you
Tell me, what are two broken hearts to do

In the mirror I see a barking dog
Just begging to be let in from the fog
With my tail between my legs I will love you dear
Hold my breath and the night still is here

The leaves on the tree are turning red
Turning like pages in my head
Through the haze of cigarettes, coffee, and beer
Close my eyes and the night still is here

(Chorus)

No needle in no vein could compare
To the tangle of my fingers in your hair
Close your eyes now darling lest the tears do run
Now the blackest of shadows we’ve become

Aloft in the tatters of our balloon
Together the most holy of buffoons
Close your eyes now darling lest we hit the ground
Now that crow black night has come down

(Chorus)
