Repeat after me
I solemnly swear
To never put down the curse that I bear
The grey in the eye
The black in the heart
The blade in the palm
The flame in the spark

Wicked down inside
Only half alive
Running the river dry
Drink, sleep, carry on
Filter until it's gone
Another blackbird flies through a burning sky

I swear on the day to awaken the night
Never crossover to come to the bite
The words on the tongue
Liquor on the breath
The pain that ensues is just a test
Lost soul where did you go?
Where did you go now nobody knows

Wicked down inside
Only half alive
Running the river dry
Drink, sleep, carry on
Filter until it's gone
Another blackbird flies through a burning sky

Lost soul where did you go?
Where did you go now nobody knows
Lost soul where did you go?
Where did you go now nobody knows

Nobody knows

Wicked down inside
Only half alive
Running the river dry
Drink, sleep, carry on
Filter until it's gone
Another blackbird flies through a burning sky
Another blackbird flies through a burning sky
