Lyrics:

(Ooh)
Birds of prey spiral around my head
They hiss songs of your birth
They caw visions of death
I’ve watched it happen again and again (haunted by)
A thousand kind beginnings and a thousand bloodied ends
I shouldn’t play with fate
But what if once I could make you safe?

So while you think you’re alone
You cast two shadows down the road
Where you have buried all your past lives’ bones
The two red suns in the sky blink, my pity-filled eyes
Hoping the heartlines will change this time
If you’d just look up, I could be your guide
Why can’t I catch your eye how you’ve caught tens of mine?
Eye in the sun
You’re all I see
Why won’t you look at me?

(Ooh)
(I’m the embers bright)
(Flitting lighting flies)
(Blinks my eye in the sun)
(In the hints of split sky)
(Ooh)
(I'm the dying fire)
(In the birthing light)
(And I’ll break every bind)
(That I’m blighted by)

You’re blind to all my warning cries (ooh)
When I speak in dust devils, crop circles, flocks of mayflies (Ooh)
So I’ve no choice but to come down
Pardon my steps shaking the ground (ha)

So while you think you’re alone
You cast two shadows down the road
Where you have buried all your past lives’ bones
The two red suns in the sky blink, my pity-filled eyes
Hoping the heartlines will change this time
But the birds on my shoulders prepare for a feast
You can taste it in the air, the soon-to-be dead meat
Eye in the sun
You’re all I see
Why don’t you look at me?

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

At the highest ridge
In the thunder's crash
I will bear my scars
To the lightning's lash
I will kneel at the sound
Of a violent cry
And I'll kiss every sword
That I'm conquered by

Your breath heaves down my nape, wrestlin’ me ‘way
But you’re too late
My body rests, dagger in chest
The heart in my hands drips
As my soul crawls from splintered ribs
To eclipse your head and beg again
For revenge

Oh, you may think you’re alone if you hide from the shadows
You can bury bones but not the souls
And two red suns in the sky will be the light to build your pyre
They’re my blank and pitiless eyes
Every death births a bird to this wretched flock
Forever tethered to your life but cursed to only watch
Catastrophe
Repeat until
You look at me

(Ooh)
(So while you think you’re alone
You cast two shadows down the road
(Where you have buried all your past lives’ bones)
Look at me

(Ooh)
(See my two sun eyes, feel my slow moving thighs)
(Tumbling dust in a dimming tide)
One day I’ll come reckoning

(Ooh)
(Hear the squabble angry caws of our wretched flock)
(Forever tethered to your life but cursed to only watch)
Wearing the feathers of our souls as wings
(Catastrophe, look at me, look at me)

(Ooh)
(At the highest ridge)
(In the thunder's crash)
(I will bear my scars)
(To the lightning's lash)
(I will kneel at the sound)
(Of a violent cry)
(And I'll kiss every sword)
(That I'm conquered by)

(Ooh)
(I’m the embers bright)
(Flitting lighting flies)
(Blinks my eye in the sun)
(In the hints of split sky)
(In the dying fire)
(I’m the birthing light)
(And I’ll…)
