Counting Crows - Rain King Lyrics
When I think of heavenDeliver me in a black-winged birdI think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathersAnd all other instruments of faith and sex and God in the belly of a black-winged bird.Dont try to feed meIve been here before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the queenI belong anywhere but in betweenShes been crying, Ive been thinkingAnd I am the rain kingAnd I said mama, mama, mama, why am I so alone?I cant go outsideIm scared I might not make it homeIm alive, Im alive but Im sinking inIf theres anyone at home at your place, darlingWhy dont you invite me in?Dont try to bleed meCause Ive been there before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the queenI belong anywhere but in betweenShes been lying, Ive been sinkingAnd I am the rain kingHey, I only want the same as anyoneHenderson is waiting for the sunOh, it seems night endlessly begins and endsAfter all the dreaming I come home again...When I think of heavenDeliver me in a black-winged birdI think of dyingLay me down in a field of flame and heatherRender up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged birdDont try to bleed meCause Ive been here before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the queenI belong anywhere but in betweenShes been dying, Ive been drinkingAnd I am the rain king
