lyrics

Crow, with the lightning in your eye,
tell the story of this world cracked open,
disappointed there was nothing inside-

Low, because our place is on the ground,
your brittle warning coming down like trees,
in a forest when there's no one around-

watching over London from your tower in the sky,
a thousand years of history reflected in your eyes,
you know we never ruled the world-

fly, with your murder if you must,
split your tongue and you can talk in two directions,
but you'll never learn to lie like us-

high, looking down on us again,
pass it on to all your kin when they gather,
on the roof of original sin-

watching over London from your tower in the sky,
a thousand years of history reflected in your eyes,
you know we never ruled the world-
