As The Crow Flies

As The Crow Flies - Thrice

Mother crow

Feels no pain

Speaks no word

Speckled egg

Hatching slow

Bible black

Baby bird

One day fly over me

Placed you in flanneled coat

Months fly by

Grow your bones

Feather

Skin

Bible black by and by

You will spread your wings

One day fly over me

Fly over

Fly over me

Over me

Fly over

Fly over me
