Crow Songtext
von Pree

Best to post a guard upon
The yard you take as yours

Know the yard, the drill, the door
How to make a world from such
Start a spill and steal its warmth
From every hand that traced its form
Every hand that traced its form

Lay to claim on a cold frontier
And undo under scoff and sneer
I′ll be a stone in a path to clear
For every craft that gathers here
Every craft that gathers here

Now you see I've built this scar
And fallen on the way
Overgrown and poorly guarded
I′ll finish what you started
I'll finish what you started


May I suggest a just for clown
To pick you up when upside down
I'll be the first to drag him ′round
He lives with me across the town
Lives with me across the town

Each on their way from out the cold
To run their hands along the floor
And I have seen the shadows roll
Across the eyes of every soul
Who cling for long enough
To pull a light from his hiding hole
A light from his hiding hole

No shame in scratching where
We′ve picked them to the bone
Four legs have made an easy chair
But two will see you home
If you were sorry when we made them share
We wouldn't go around
It didn′t show though you were always loathe to give it sound

Now you see I've built this scar
And fallen on the way
Overgrown and poorly guarded
I′ll finish what you started
I'll finish what you started
