A crow sits all alone In company A room full of brothers Sisters A lover Savoring the sweet melancholy
Pushing out the poison Of another times misery The midnight rainbows Dripping from the lips of the forgotten Paints a portrait Of a broken backs history
But how else should he bleed The need to feed Is a most beautiful mystery
So sing porch crow, sing Let the world go In good company Thereβs no need to think
So sing old soul, sing Brother, we donβt mind
There I was, sitting in some kind of weird post-modern cult of the dispossessed and stray youth. Jammin' on a beat up Yamaha acoustic, the porch crow crooned and I heard.
