Old Crows

Old crows ride in the mouth of the beast

Sleep beneath its tongue, cradled by its teeth

We roam from shore to shore

From the open sky to the ocean floor

The more we move the less we are ourselves

And when we finally stop, we've changed to something else

As rapid as a river flows

As frigid as the cold wind can blow

As devious as the devil’s grin

Our blood is cold and we’ve shed our skin

Now, we are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

we are not the kids we used to be

Ooooh oh oh

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

The crows are calling - seems the end is near

They’re spelling out their names, yet we have no fear

Oh, the damage a man can do

When ambition takes over his search for the truth

Sometimes life just gets the best of us

Some things in life will get the best of us

Now, we are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

We are not the kids we used to be

Ooooh oh oh (Stop wishing for yesterday)

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

Every skyline beats in my chest

Somewhere between love and sadness

This is our fate, this is our test

We ride in the mouth of madness

As rapid as a river flows

As frigid as the cold wind can blow

As devious as the devil’s grin

Our blood is cold and we’ve shed our skin

Now, we are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

We are not the kids we used to be

Ooooh oh oh (Stop wishing for yesterday)

We are not the kids we used to be

Stop wishing for yesterday

Wishing for yesterday

Wishing for yesterday
