The Black Bird, The Dark Slope - Los Campesinos!

The black bird sits atop my guts

And spreads it's wings for flight

My shoulders back

My jaw pushed out

My stomach sucked in

It's wingtips push across my lungs

And fill them full of feathers

But the brushstrokes feel like

Hearthpokes into my skin

The black bird feasts upon my guts

And bears it's beak to fight

My shoulders back

My jaw pushed out

My stomach sucked in

It's wingtips push across my lungs

And fill them full of feathers

Now they poke between my teeth

And that's why I thirst

When he flies me to the top

There's nothing but the fog

A heart of stone

Eggshells for bones

They lead you to be lost

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The black bird is a part of me

A part of me so sad to see

The black bird is a part of me so sad

To see so sad

I ask before I go

For you to drop a lit match down my throat

And smoke the bastard out

Or burn him to a crisp

'Cause I'm already carrion

Been eaten from the inside too long

This black bird wants to rip me

Limb from limb

The black bird dips it's beak

In blood and writes it's thoughts in cursive

'Cross the bones that are it's jailer

And my ribcage

And when you turn me inside out

Believe in me without a doubt

The words were all of his

And none of mine

When he flies me to the top

There's nothing but the fog

A heart of stone

Eggshells for bones

They lead you to be lost

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The dark slope drags you down

The black bird is a part of me

A part of me so sad to see

The black bird is a part of me so sad

To see so sad to be me
