Black wing flies above our head
Down here we’re just stumbling
Tripping in our own feet, falling every corner
Like a bunch of drunken paranoids without a home
Black wing’s been round for too long
Don’t wanna cope with it no more
Black wing’s gotta get away
I can’t stand it another day

(get a stone and throw it at the black bird)

Black wing mocks us everyday
Steals away all he can take
Taming us like puppies, pulling us as puppets
Till our strings are tied together like spaghetti
Black wing’s been round for too long
Don’t wanna cope with it no more
Black wing’s gotta get away
I can’t stand it another day
Black wing comes and black wing goes
And gets us stuck here head to toe
Close the windows, lock your door
Lock the children in, don’t let them out now
Don’t let them out now, no

Black wing flew so far away
Still he plans to come back some day
To steal your soul and take all your belongings and your stories
Till you don’t know who you are and what you’re doing here
Black wing’s been round for too long
Don’t wanna cope with it no more
Black wing’s gotta get away
I can’t stand it another day
Black wing comes and black wing goes
And gets us stuck here head to toe
Close the windows, lock your door
Lock the children in, don’t let them out now
Don’t let them out now, no
