Dark Lotus - The Crows lyrics

Oh my God crying
Help me

I can hear 'em whisper my name (cirtcelE)
I can feel 'em watch me every now and again
I watch 'em float along the clouds
Hunt for blood stains my soul's almost out
And he can only see the pain (eriW)
Wings spread on the perch they sit
Conversatin' with the Devil on
Some "who's next?" shit (em htiw emoC)
I feel the spirit's rise when
The black birds fly when it's time to die
Only the crows know why (em gnihctaW)

Twelve o' clock on the dot
My blood runs cold
Pierce, engaged through the window
Got me in a choke hold
Visions of death, pinnacle sacrifice
And the ultimate price of takin' my own life


(sutoL eht dloH) beady yellow eyes that seem
See right through me
Talkin' to me, the beyond consumes me
The black crow takes my
Thought's and plants seeds
The black crow plants his feet and oversees
(won sutoL ehT)

Our Father of Shangri-La, hallow be thy name
If the world turns over
Save me from the fire rain
Keep me pure, keep me clean
As the Lotus grows
I ask you for forgiveness
Keep me from the crows

Black feathers, black eye', black wings
(nevaR) perched atop the cemetery gating
Waiting for me, recording my moves
Used to be one, now there are two
(me' fo htoB)
A couple, waiting to pick at my soul
And bring me back to the one in control
The faster I run, they still give chase
(gnihctaW) will they leave me if I
Reveal my Holy Cross face?

Black blood (Yes) within the raven
Have I been forgaven?
A haven, of crows, watching, squawking
Drifting above me, hawking
What lies beneath it's eyes?
Who's guiding it as it flies?
When the red moon bleeds, it feeds
Fulfilling it's needs

Our Father of Shangri-La, hallow be thy name
If the world turns over
Save me from the fire rain
Keep me pure, keep me clean
As the Lotus grows
I ask you for forgiveness
Keep me from the crows

Our Father of Shangri-La, hallow be thy name
If the world turns over
Save me from the fire rain
(niar erif eht morf em evas
Revo snrut dlrow eht fI)
Keep me pure, keep me clean
As the Lotus grows (eman yht eb wollah
AL-irgnahS fo rehtaF ruO)
I ask you for forgiveness
Keep me from the crows
(sworc eht morf em peek
Ssenevigrof rof uoy ksa I)

Am I marked for death? Do
They want my last breath?
Do they really want me dead
So my soul will resurrect?
I can't help it, prayin' to the Gods above
Purify my soul, change the crows to doves

Wings spread out, and they cover my soul
Death's voice rings out and
Spreads through my mentals
In through my mind and down my spine
I'm a moment's to dead and the
Crows are on the mind

(em ees nac yehT) Midnight, sunrise, sunfall
Crows beacon, Pharaos call
My blood, hot, dripping
Crow wings I'm clipping, snipping

I will never be afraid in
The eye's of the dead
In my trench coat pocket
There's a severed crows head
I look it's neck to see what they can see
I will finally come to grips
They will always be around me

Our Father of Shangri-La, hallow be thy name
If the world turns over
Save me from the fire rain
(sworg sutoL eht sa, naelc em peek
Erup em peeK) keep me pure, keep me clean
As the Lotus grows
(niar erif eht morf em evas
Revo snrut dlrow eht fI)
I ask you for forgiveness
Keep me from the crows (eman yht eb wollah
AL-irgnahS fo rehtaF ruO)
Our Father of Shangri-La, hallow be thy name
If the world turns over
Save me from the fire rain
Keep me pure, keep me clean
As the Lotus grows
I ask you for forgiveness
Keep me from the crows
