Blackbird - On Dead Waves, Polly Scattergood, Maps

I got a big blackbird in my bedroom

He keeps on singing to me

He said: «You will not believe

The shit I have seen»

I said: «Well hey, blackbird

It is not everyday that you sing to me

So sit on my feet

And tell me something»

«Find yourself, child

And run away

In disguise made out of dreams that got

Divert along the way»

«My dreams are like summer

But yours are like spring

I sleep until sunrise»

Sing blackbird sing

«My dreams are like summer

Yours are like spring

I sleep until sunrise»

Sing blackbird sing

I said: «Well hey, black bird

If there’s one thing that I can guarantee

It’s that you are inside

My head now with me»

But the big blackbird said: «Listen child

Things aren’t how they seem

There’s darkness of light

But on the space in between

Find yourself, child

And run away

In disguise made out of dreams that got

Divert along the way

«My dreams are like summer

But yours are like spring

I sleep until sunrise»

Sing blackbird sing

«My dreams are like summer

Yours are like spring

I sleep until sunrise»

Sing blackbird sing
