Lyrics

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers and
All other instruments of faith and sex and God in the belly of a black winged
Bird
Don't try to bleed me. 'Cause I've been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of a Queen. I belong anywhere but in between
She's been lying. I've been thinking. And I am the Rain King
I said Mama, Mama, Mama, why am I so alone?
I can't go outside. I'm scared I might not make it home
I'm alive, I'm alive, but I'm sinking in
If there's anyone at home at your place, darlin', why don't you invite me in?
Don't try to bleed me. 'Cause I've been there before and I deserve a little
More
I belong in the service of the Queen. I belong anywhere but in between
She's been lying. I've been sinking. And I am the Rain King
Hey, I only want the same as anyone. Henderson is waiting for the sun
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends. After all the dreaming I come
Home again
When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of dying. Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged
Bird
Don't try to bleed me. 'Cause I've been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen. I belong anywhere but in between
She's been lying. I've been drinking. And I am the Rain King
Well I said that I am the Rain King. Well I said, I, I, I, I, I, Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well I am the Rain King. Yeeeeaaaah!
