lyrics

White owl black crow tapping on my window, he knows where the thunder rolls
The thistle and the sundown, pricked my finger on a Blackthorn
Never going home
Elemental feelings grow now I roam where no one knows but the white owl and the black crow
Black night white bones north star, new dawn
Fell in love with the siren’s song
I was a dead man walking with no love in my heart nor home
Now I hear my heartbeat and they follow me wherever I go
That white owl black crow
White owl black crow tapping on my window
White owl black crow
Now I’m wild and I’m wind blown with the devils and the angels in my soul
White ash and woad down the end of a dirt road and I’m lost in the deep and tangled rose
And the white owl and the black crow keep tapping on my window
They know where the thunder rolls
