Blackbirds Lyrics

[Mike]
...

Lay the sick ones down
The bells will ring
Put pennies on the eyes
Let the dead man sing

[Chester]
I shiver and shake trough warm and cold
I'm alone on my own
In every mistake
I dig this hole trough my skin and bones
It's harder starting over
Than never to have changed

With blackbirds following me
Are digging up my brain
They close in swallowing me
The pain it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave

I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades
As I waste away
It traps me inside
Mistakes I made
That's the price I pay
It's harder starting over
Than never to have changed

With blackbirds following me
Are digging up my brain
They close in swallowing me
The pain it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave

[Mike]
I dropped to the floor like I did before
Stop, watching I'm coughing
I can't be more
What I want what I need are a constant a war
Like a well full of poison
A rotten core
The blood goes thin
The fever stings
And I shake from the hell that the habits bring
Lay the sick ones down
The bells will ring
Put pennies on the eyes
Let the dead man sing

[Chester]
With blackbirds following me
Are digging up my brain
They close in swallowing me
The pain it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave

I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
