---

I saw a crow upon a block

He danced for me

and then he mocked

Look at you once proud once bold

I said dear crow, it’s late, I’m cold.

Never fear, said darling crow

I’ve mirth to share And soon you’ll know

Join me now and we can fly away

But I turned my back and walked away

In chimney smoke I saw my fate

I wished away my greatest hate

But it stuck to me, like ink in skin

Now let’s wait for ends begin

I think of crow

So black and free

I wish I’d seen what he saw in me

But some must fly and some must walk

Speak not to birds and talk the talk

Regrets... I’ve had a few.

Regrets.. the more you knew

Chorus: under graveside watch

we speak of my decline

Under graveside watch

we flip to see the time

Under gravest watch

we cast before the swine

Under gravest watch

I break what’s almost mine
