Lyrics for Crow
When crow makes a mistake
There is no mercy, no second chance
The vultures will circle and wait
Black velvet between the yellow lines Black velvet between the yellow lines
When crow makes a mistake
The fl ight of swallows all snicker and gasp
To whom much is given there is much to take In a free fall six seconds
Black velvet between the yellow lines
And in that moment before the end – Time becomes a big blue sky
He remembers the fi rst time drafting on his mother’s wing
He stepped o the wire, he stepped o the wire, he stepped o the wire
When crow makes a mistake
The honest corvid admits—that could have been me
One part nature, three parts fate ‘Cause too much re jection only makes you weak
Black velvet between the yellow lines Black velvet between the yellow lines
