Preybirds (Watcher Song)

(Ooh) Birds of prey spiral around my head They hiss songs of your birth They caw visions of death I've watched it happen again and again Haunted by A thousand kind beginnings And a thousand bloodied ends I shouldn't play with fate But what if once, I could make you safe? So while you think you're alone You cast two shadows down the road Where you have buried all your past lives' bones The two red suns in the sky, blink My pity-filled eyes Hoping the heartlines will change this time If you'd just look up I could be your guide Why can't I catch your eye how you've caught tens of mine Eye in the sun You're all I see Why won't you look at me? I'm the embers bright (Ooh) Flitting lightning flies Blinks my eye in the sun In the hints of split sky I'm the dying fire In the birthing light And I'll break every bind That I'm blighted by You're blind to all my warning cries When I speak in dust devils, crop circles, flocks of mayflies So I've no choice but to come down Pardon my steps shaking the ground (ha) So while you think you're alone You cast two shadows down the road Where you have buried all your past lives' bones The two red suns in the sky, blink My pity-filled eyes Hoping the heartlines will change this time But the birds on my shoulders prepare for a feast You can taste it in the air The soon-to-be dead meat Eye in the sun You're all I see Why don't you look at me?
