Dreams of darkness
comes the blackbird
that tells the blackbird lies,
the bird of death sitting in a nest
the one who tries to take
your last breath,
the blackbird that stands around
and hidden in a crowd,
shadows that are dark and powerful,
little blackbird;
you feel you are the graceful one,
but you will soon be found and bound
locked away in your own cage,
the water you will always crave;
you will have a mirror of your ugliness,
you must pay for all you have done
that kept loved ones always on the run,
life is a beautiful gift;
love is as beautiful as one could ever get
Little blackbird
look what you have done,
You whispered lies to keep other birds
just to get them to flock with you,
your secrets are deadly
full of poison and fear,
but soon that too will despair
from this old atmosphere;
little blackbird,
you will soon be caught
you will never be free
from this cage of darken dreams,
