Mr Crow
Lyrics
Verse 1
He lands on the fence
Like a bad omen grin
Black glass eyes on me
And he knows where I’ve been
Feather suit, sharp beak
He taps out my name
On the metal gate
Like he came for the claim
Pre-Chorus
Come closer, come near
Don’t look away
He’s got a cold little crown
And he rules the gray
Chorus
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Take what you know
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Pull me below
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Black as the road
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Don’t let me go
Verse 2
He waits by the drain
Where the dead leaves spin
Picks at a silver ring
Like a sin within
I tried to lock the door
He was already in
On the windowsill
With that crooked little grin
Pre-Chorus
Come closer, come near
Don’t look away
He’s got a cold little crown
And he rules the gray
Chorus
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Take what you know
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Pull me below
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Black as the road
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Don’t let me go
Bridge
He says, “Follow the bones”
In the wet backyard
Where the moon hangs low
And the night gets hard
I hear that call
In my ruined name
If I’m going down
He’s the one to blame
Final Chorus
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Take what you know
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Pull me below
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Black as the road
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Don’t let me go
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Take what you know
Mr Crow, Mr Crow
Pull me below
