Song Of The Blackest Bird - Insomnium

Far above the darkling world

Soars the blackest bird

Far above the darkling world

It sings the saddest song

(And those who hear its cry )

Those who hear it will go astray

Those who hear it will wither away

And nothing besides they hear

Nothing besides they think anymore

They will turn away

They will turn away

And they will turn away from the sun

They will turn away

They will turn away

And they will turn against themselves

At the midmost night

Each midmost night

Upon Death's palm

The bird will rest a while

And gently Death will speak

Softly Death will hum and whisper

Fly again my bird fly again over the world

Fly again my bird over the world

Those who hear it will bow their heads

Those who hear it will find no rest

And black as a dream is now their way

For into the shades they all shall fade

They will turn

They will turn

They will turn away the sun

They will turn

They will turn

They will turn against themselves

At the midmost night

Each midmost night

Upon Death's palm the bird will rest a while

And gently Death will speak

Softly Death will hum and whisper

Fly again my bird fly again over the world

Far above the darkling world

Soars the blackest bird

Far above the darkling world

It sings the saddest song
