lyrics

Evil little children with eyes as red as fire,
Dance around in circles making fun of your demise,
Hanging from the oak so high you swing both to and fro,
And tiny little devils spawn stand all in a row

Dangling from heights so great you see them gather round,
Jealous of their feet planted firmly on the ground,
You try to scream "please let me down!", you push with all your might,
But this is not one you'll win you'll have to lose this fight

Open your mouth expand your chest but nothing can get through,
The rope is getting tighter, you know not what to do,
You see black crows up above ,they circle around your fate,
No longer can you deny it with them you have a date

They watch for your last breath to take you from this dream
Then they'll feast upon you corpse until your bones are clean,
The crow’s beady black eyes watch keenly as you try,
To figure out a way to escape rather than die*

You close your eyes and picture that you're shrinking as they see,
The rope is getting looser and you struggle to get free,
First your hands slip through and you grab on to the rope,
No longer tight around your throat finally there’s hope*

Still shrinking right before their eyes you scream to them aloud,
"I can turn in to a bird and fly right out of town!"
They watch in sheer disbelief as you jumped into the air,
You turned in to a sparrow and flew right out of there

Smiling slightly,as you died , a tear roll down your face,
Your final thought of peace, no pain, it was replaced
