crows - cassiopeia (adam hess) lyrics
(verse 1)
they hide in his peripherals
slowly egging his gaze on
they seek attention patiently and
thrive in isolation
they call out quietly at nightfall
their beaks as black as the path he’s on
feathers ruffled up with drying blood
from feasting on those who’ve given up
(chorus)
crows
background noise, a mere annoyance oh
they rest in trees like leaves of static oh
swirling m-ss descends when you’re alone
alone
(verse 2)
he’s got a good heart but it’s filled with pain
cause he can’t control the fowls in his brain
yeah he’s tried to change but he’s still the same one who
decided to turn from the truths that he once knew
he likes a jacket, yes, to keep his vessel warm
perhaps that’s to fight off the inevitability of the cold
but after all he’s the one that chose to stay here
seems like yesterday it’d only been a single year
the year’s condensed here
life goes fast with fear
cycles and circles go round
and look, you’re still here
it’s fun to read about in holy books we learn from
but then when you see it in yourself it loses all its fun
consider for a moment what these lyrics could mean
i’m not telling, yeah it’s something that i wrote for me
maybe i’m the ‘he’ or maybe i’m the fated crow
you could speculate all day and still you would never know
(chorus)
crows
background noise, a mere annoyance oh
they rest in trees like leaves of static oh
swirling m-ss descends when you’re alone
watch out for the crows
no matter how long they will not leave you alone
they may be gone for a time but they’ll be back, you know
and they’ll be satisfied when your head is under the snow
(verse 3)
heat rises
he realizes
looks up and sees a light
a break from the chilling night
just over static trees, he starts to free his knees from the snow
you never know how deep you’re in until you cannot weep for sin
am i right?
he reaches to the branches
afraid of avalanches
and one step at a time he starts to get some height
the crow’s nest’s his only chance to live
and maybe gain perspective
it’s hard to climb when the limbs are so close to breaking
but he climbs cause it’s his own soul that he’s taking
and once he’s made it up
almost gave up, but now he’s above
his heart remembers love and the light of the sun and he smiles again as he sees the dove
and he’s taken above
