Repeat after me

I solemnly swear

To never put down the curse that I bear

The grey in the eye

The black in the heart

The blade in the palm

The flame in the spark

Wicked down inside

Only half alive

Running the river dry

Drink, sleep, carry on

Filter until it's gone

Another blackbird flies through a burning sky

I swear on the day to awaken the night

Never crossover to come to the bite

The words on the tongue

Liquor on the breath

The pain that ensues is just a test

Lost soul where did you go?

Where did you go now nobody knows

Wicked down inside

Only half alive

Running the river dry

Drink, sleep, carry on

Filter until it's gone

Another blackbird flies through a burning sky

Lost soul where did you go?

Where did you go now nobody knows

Lost soul where did you go?

Where did you go now nobody knows

Nobody knows

Wicked down inside

Only half alive

Running the river dry

Drink, sleep, carry on

Filter until it's gone

Another blackbird flies through a burning sky

Another blackbird flies through a burning sky
