[Verse 1: Joe Horton:]
Crow Jane froze ‘ Cocaine stuck to her nose
Delicate, made to be broken
Pellet in her wing ‘ Another in the gut
On her way to heaven ‘fore the barrel stop smoking
Swallowing the heat ‘ Lips burn bright, then I follow her to sleep
Energy returns to the ocean as a wave
And we forget about the world that was begging us to stay until we crash
Back on the shore and get a good glance at all the funny forms we could have
If we would relapse
She became she ‘ I became I
We became addicted painting pictures in the chaos
I made a snake ‘ She made a crow ‘ Loved her so much, named her Crow Jane
She didn't like my snake, so I injected her with venom
Made her jealous of the girls with the alabaster wings
[Interlude: Joe Horton:]
Shed black feathers tug my divining rod tongue to Jane
Half naked ‘ pecking her reflection in the pond
Even ugly things deserve a little d**h
[Verse: Joe Horton:]
I made a snake ‘ Jane made a crow
Loved her so much ‘ Made her go away
Didn't want her to leave, so I invented heaven
And put her in the sky, with alabaster wings
Faster than a blink, something in me clicks
If Jane wants a friend, that's exactly what she'll get
Next crow I see, I point and yell murder
Put two in her chest, break a tooth off in her sternum
Whisper in her ear, I'm sorry if I hurt you
You're delicate, and made to be broken
The venom puts an ocean in your chest instead of a heartbeat
It'll all be over soon ‘ Just sink into it slowly
Only thing I ask in exchange for breaking your cage
Is that you fly to heaven and find my bird Jane
Tell her I'm sending her some company
And as long as I'm drawing breath
She'll always be the girl for me
[Interlude: Joe Horton:]
Tied myself in knots ‘ Couldn't swallow my own tail anymore
That's why I keep her around
Tied myself in knots ‘ Couldn't swallow my own tail anymore
That's why I keep her around
She's a glutton for the punishment I need
[Outro: Joe Horton:]
That's why I keep her around (repeats)
Heaven is a pile of hollow bones (repeats)
