O’er the road that takes my soul A flickered crow, blackened load Levies against the way I go “Turn back” he says “Turn left” he says “Turn right” he says As I struggle O’er the road that takes my soul O’er the road that takes my soul I keep a tired watch On that flickered crow Who’s insistence guides The careless narcosis, On this side Where it grows I touch, it bites I know I’m wrong It eats, I accept there’s no new heights Just the road.

The Crow's Burden
O’er the road that takes my soul A flickered crow, blackened load Levies against the way I go “Turn back” he says “Turn left” he says “Turn right” he says As I struggle O’er the road that takes my soul O’er the road that takes my soul I keep a tired watch On that flickered crow Who’s insistence guides The careless narcosis, On this side Where it grows I touch, it bites I know I’m wrong It eats, I accept there’s no new heights Just the road.
