Crooked Ways - Sparrow Lyrics

Little bird sustained in crashing wind
Catastrophic clutter, light dimmed within
The queen doused in self-submerged ignorance
Never knowing her sloth caused bird to dismiss

Sparrow scrounges for home
Deception remains, graverobbed casket with no bones
Sparrow search, far search wide
For life-fulfilling sanctuary no soul kept inside

Little bird swore a noble travel oath
Maiden voyage stifled by stunted growth
Others thrived tranquility between walls
Ritualistic purge displayed throughout all

Sparrow scrounges for home
Deception remains, graverobbed casket with no bones
Sparrow search, far search wide
For life-fulfilling sanctuary no soul kept inside

Foreshadowed implosion etched in stone
Under basic scrutiny clear future known
Suffocated tradition laced in lifelong trauma
Who really knows best, doubt it's mama

Sparrow scrounges for home
Deception remains, graverobbed casket with no bones
Sparrow search, far search wide
For life-fulfilling sanctuary no soul kept inside, yeah

Inside, inside, inside
