little black sister
on a night of raging thunder
she came riding a screaming revelation
on a night of hammering hunger
she assembled her congregation
sing little black sister
sing for the sad crow king
sing little black sister
sing for the trembling skin
from steel you forged your metalheart
like nightfall you made it hard and dark
when you grow strong I growsilent and weak
when you grow wings I grow a crows black beak
sing little sister
sing little black sister
sing for the sad crow king
sing little black sister
sing for the trembling skin
in the playhouse dancing slowly
an unforgiven couple
they speak with just one voice
low and pale and hollow
the oxeye daisies they all carry an even number
so love is lost between the two
and their dance is an uneasy slumber
sing little black sister
sing for the sad crow king
sing little black sister
sing for the trembling skin
sing little black sister
sing for the ghost you bring
sing little black sister
sing for the sad crow king
