Testo Rooks - Shearwater
Testo della canzone Rooks (Shearwater), tratta dall'album The Snow Leopard EP
When the rooks were laid in piles by the sides of the road
Crashing into the aerials tangled in the laundry lines
And gathered in a field they were burned in a feathering pyre
With the cold black eyes
When the swallows fell from the eaves and the gulls from the spires
And starlings in the millions would feed on the ground where they lie
And the ambulance man said there's nowhere to flee for your life
So we stay inside
And we'll sleep until the world of man is paralyzed
Oh the falconer awakes to the sound of the birds
Overhead and southbound, they're leaving his life
And each empty cage just rings in his heart like a bell
Underneath these cold stars and this trembling night
And he cries, "Oh man, let the kingdom come tonight
Let this dream be realized"
