Crow Covered Tree

I remember I woke to find me sitting at the end of the bed
My fingers were calm and resting under my chin
My hands had been waiting to wake me from the strangest dream
A looming thought was lurking in my head
Dr. Death came to visit us again
With my lungs tangled in my thoughts I leaned back against the pillow
I would make my way back to sleep once more

It just takes some time to find out that the bones you break
It just takes some time to find out that they’re the least
of what’s there to break

I found myself in the same dream from where I had left a lifetime ago
I was sitting at the end of the bed, waiting for me to wake up
Thinking how I would break him the news
We’re going around, going around in circles
How could I ask you even more?

It just takes some time to find out that the bones you break
It just takes some time to find out that the bones you break
And time if anything has been my good friend in this
And time if anything has been turning back,
turning back until I break

The crow covered tree outside the room
The crow covered tree outside the room
The crow covered tree outside the room
Had been asleep for days
