With just a song inside our chests
Just like 2 blackbirds there waiting for the sun

Time’s been pulling at my seams
The nighttime & evenings no slumber have I found
Till When I am lying 6 feet underground

But there’s a special medicine
Made for people wandering
A melody you could sing until your days are done
just like 2 blackbirds waiting for the sun

I’m not afraid to die
