lyrics

Not as the Crow Flies
By Amber Lee Baker

I let myself seep up through cracks
I chew on every bone
And when my belly’s finally full
I’ve brought my Demon home

Cause I’m a child of mud and twigs
With dirt in every pore
And when I let my monster out
I learn to love him more

I know he’s not so nice to see
The hairy, smelly mess
But he’s a blessing in disguise
Allbeit……..grotesque

Cause in the dead of every night
I get to see my Troll
His crooked vertebrae are stacked
And satisfy my soul

Twist and tangle, rough and rangle
Look in to his eyes
Find my way through Labyrinth
But Not as the Crow Flies

Can’t keep him from coming out
Or hide him under bed
Ignore him for a month or two
And he’ll eat my head…
