Starlings (feat. North Lodestar) [Fletched Rain]
All these stupid starlings round my head
They're the shadows perched beside my bed
They just paint my doubts and leave me... dead
Oh my spirit won't you read the red
Oh you scarlet letters set me free
Your orator's heart gifted me
For this valley dark has left me blind
and the hope I had seems left behind
On this solemn gravestone let it read
A wanderer who cried for peace
Upon this barren earth he strode
And the love of Christ, he tried to show
Oh you scarlet letters wash away
The pain of foreign yesterdays
All the nightmares of a fallen past
All the scars of sin that seem to last
As the world continues as it goes
In a sullen shift to amoral
With truth suppressed, where lies are free
Prisons with red-lettered keys
No lock will budge with lofty words
For minds have sickened from what's heard
It remains reserved, the refrain lies
When the Light of Lights let starlings die
They're the shadows perched beside my bed
They just paint my doubts and leave me... dead
Oh my spirit won't you read the red
Oh you scarlet letters set me free
Your orator's heart gifted me
For this valley dark has left me blind
and the hope I had seems left behind
On this solemn gravestone let it read
A wanderer who cried for peace
Upon this barren earth he strode
And the love of Christ, he tried to show
Oh you scarlet letters wash away
The pain of foreign yesterdays
All the nightmares of a fallen past
All the scars of sin that seem to last
As the world continues as it goes
In a sullen shift to amoral
With truth suppressed, where lies are free
Prisons with red-lettered keys
No lock will budge with lofty words
For minds have sickened from what's heard
It remains reserved, the refrain lies
When the Light of Lights let starlings die
