If I could, Hawk my love
Could I trade, For your wings
To cover me, Unless I fall
Half alive, I heard the most
Brilliant lie, Sleep is eyes
Closed to light, Deaths the mind
Wide open...
You can't stutter When you're talking with your eyes
Like cutting out your tongue to save face
Or feeding on the blood That's running from a black rain Chorus:
Cry on Black Rain
If I could, hawk my love
Could I trade, for your wings
To cover me, unless I fall
Sleep is eyes, Closed to light
Death's the mind, Wide open.
You can't stutter When you're talking with your eyes
Like cutting out your tongue to save face
Or feeding on the blood that's running from a black rain
