Fly with the Black Swan |
| Once I got caught in an avalanche |
| I must have died |
| When a Black Swan flew to the rescue and cried |
| An offer I could not refuse, now I’m working on the other side |
| Well, I flew with the bird then, we flew all night |
| I got to see my prison from a thousand feet high |
| Buy me a drink, and I tell you |
| 'bout the Black Swan |
| Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right, to find the one |
| whom I can steal |
| A soul from, to buy more time |
| Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right, the only one I could |
| deceive |
| I buy my time; |
| need you to fly on the Black Swan |
| The date is set, we all must face it |
| Door to door, seeking salvation |
| --- I must, for die I wish not |
| My hopes stay afloat when you give in to the |
| Silver lining, sharp and so cold |
| Anger fades into a vague smile |
| ---you see, I’m ready to do it for everyone |
| I stabbed you in the back, who will save you now… |
| Don’t worry, I’ve done this before |
| It’ll hurt like hell and leave you sore |
| No use escaping, hold on to your ticket of gold |
| And close your eyes… |
| One day I know you will sell your soul |
| And trade all you are for silver and gold… |
| You’ll get an odd advice from a stranger |
| Take it, from me, with love… |
| Once I was in love with someone like you, Engaged to be whole |
| Got torn out of your memories, covered in snow… |
| I need to find a way to pass on the gift I once received |
| I’m ready to face it… |
| I’ll take my chances, if I am |
| Returning to the deep |
| Dark snow grave, so be it |
| I-should-not-rest-now…but forever! |
| I’ll feed… — the ferryman’s creed |
| With an empty promise for my lost soul… |
| Must keep those black wings folded, until the darkest night |
| I steal a soul from you to buy me some time |
| Pouring boiling water on a solid frozen flower |
| Black nailed finger of the creator |
| I take a bow, thank for this opportunity |
| But I’ve given the last ride for all those close to kin |
| Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right, to find the one |
| whom I can steal |
| A soul from, to buy more time |
| Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right, the only one I could |
| deceive |
| I served my time, need you to fly with the Black Swan |
