Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw a flock of black birds
I saw a flock of black birds look down at me
Evil beady eyes and sharp beaks
I don't trust those stupid little beasts
They look like they want something deep inside
That I can't reach
[Verse 2]
Crumple my fingers into fists
And keep them in my pockets
So I don't lose my thumbs
I'll keep my head down and my hood up
So I don't lose my nose
Keep my shoulders steady and my chin up turned
So I look like I belong
[Verse 3]
I'll eat the food you give me but I won't like it
I'll talk to you about things and you'll put a gun
Near my face but
I won't mind it
[Verse 4]
Say what you want about me
See what you want to see
You can cry and you scream
But I've been through this too many times
To care about how you feel
I can fend for myself while you listen to the crows
Watch them peck out your eyes and
Take your soul and claim you as their own
As their own
As their own
Watch them peck out your eyes and
Take your soul and claim you as their own
[Verse 5]
Business men with their
Tall coats and pockets
Can be your friends
Just tell them what they want to hear
And they'll sell you a story in exchange for some
Years of time
Pick what you want to be
It can be anything if you close your eyes
It's fun to imagine
Another body, another life
[Verse 6]
Say what you want about me
See what you want to see
You can cry and you scream but i've
Been through this too many times
To care about how you feel
I can fend for myself while you listen to the crows
Watch them peck out your eyes and
Take your soul
Watch them peck out your eyes and take your soul
Claim you as their own
As their own
As their own
Watch them peck out your eyes and take your soul
And take your soul
And claim you as their own
As their own
As their own
As their own
