Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a crow flying
Dark and ragged, tree to tree
He's black as the highway that's leading me
Now, he's diving down
To pick up on something shiny
I feel like that black crow flying
In a blue sky
[Verse 2]
I took the ferry to the highway
Then I drove to a pontoon plane
I took a plane to a taxi
And a taxi to a train
I've been traveling so long
How am I ever gonna know my home
When I see it again?
[Verse 3]
I'm like a black crow flying
In a blue, blue sky
[Verse 4]
In search of love and music
My whole life has been
Illumination, corruption
Diving, diving, diving, diving
Diving down to pick up on
Every shiny thing
[Verse 5]
Just like that black crow flying
In a blue sky
[Verse 6]
I looked at the morning
After being up all night
I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light
I looked out the window
And I saw that ragged soul take flight
[Verse 7]
I saw a black crow flying
In a blue sky
[Verse 8]
Oh, I'm like a black crow flying
In a blue sky
