Heart of a Blackbird

from Mr. Sunshine X by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

You lay in their favorite hole to put you in
The stares and whispers are ready to begin
It screams so loud it becomes your best friend
The silence eating at your brain.
I can't be caught getting too sentimental
Cause I don't believe in anything
The comforting fear that comes accidental
The large black eyes that scream in my sleep.

It's always gray in the heart of a blackbird.

High on PM's and fascination
My thoughts are beyond my control
Down on AM's and desolation
Looking for a savior in anyone.
The sun's gone black and the trees are frozen stiff
The outside world starts to melt again
I try to look out but I only see in
I try to look out but I only see in.

It's always gray in the heart of blackbird.
It's always gray, always gray again.
I can't explain the haunting face I see.
Cause it's always gray in the heart of a blackbird.
