Lyrics
You're lying to me
You are deceiving me
They're not pests, you see
The crows are not nuisances, they hold significance
And I wont let you
I won't allow you
Take them away from me
To separate them from me
Crimson sky
Referring to the sky's color
Murder of crows
A group of crows
Tearful eye
An eye filled with tears
Storm clouds are close
Imminent trouble indicated by storm clouds
They're my friends
The crows are considered friends
They help me cope
They assist in dealing with difficulties
Not knowing the end
Uncertainty about the future
Giving me hope
Providing a sense of optimism
A murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder, a murder
Repeatedly emphasizing a group of crows
A murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder, a murder
Continuation of the emphasis on a murder of crows
Bye bye black sheep have you any wool
Farewell to conventional expectations ("black sheep")
Yes I got some from the crows
Crows provide something valuable
They're my driving force as you know
The crows serve as a driving force
Without them I'd be dead in the snow
Life would be unbearable without them
The wing give me flight flying off of the ground
Crows give the ability to rise above challenges
Those bird's only purpose is just for the sound
Crows' purpose is to create sound
They're my friends as I said they don't give me laws
Crows as friends provide support without imposing rules
Just lift me up by their sharp beaks and their claws
Lifting the person with their beaks and claws
Ripping inspiring the sound I'm desiring
Crows' actions are inspiring and create desired sounds
So sweet unlike my disgusting environment
The contrast between the beauty of the sound and the unpleasant environment
It's not all filth 'cuz sticking though the mud
Amidst the filth, there are valuable experiences
Are gems that I draw from and inhale the fiery
Gems in the mud are a source of inspiration
Passion yeah
Expressing intense emotion or enthusiasm
Slashing ya'
Powerfully affecting the listener
Right through the heart
Penetrating deeply into the emotions
And every time my mind is crying
Mental struggle and returning to the beginning
Back to the start
A murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder, a murder
Reiteration of the impact of a group of crows
A murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder a murder, a murderer
Introducing the idea of a murderer, possibly symbolic
Bye bye black sheep have you any wool
Farewell to societal expectations ("black sheep")
Yes I got some from the crows
Reaffirmation of the crows' significance
They're my driving force as you know
Emphasizing the crows as a driving force
Without them I'd be dead in the snow
Life would be unbearable without them
