Unkindness of Ravens - Predator/Prey
Lyrics by:Joshua Adam Phipps/Derrick De Kerckhove
Composed by:Joshua Adam Phipps/Derrick De Kerckhove
Alone in the empty open
Searching for others under the cover
Tracks of the hungry stretch out
We watch them 'cross one another
Scavenge the forest for food
Dark in the bright sky red in the snow
Coaxing the hunters to their prey
Taking the scraps as tax for our role
Oh this is not to be moralized
Oh this is not to be canonized
And if this is just our mean little lives
We live them out like everybody else
Sometimes your pecking on bones
So when you can eat the heart first
Days when the hunger has flown
Perch in the silence speaking in verse
Oh this is not to be moralized
Oh this is not to be canonized
And if this is just our mean little lives
We live them out like everybody else
Oh this is not to be moralized
Oh this is not to be canonized
And if this is just our mean little lives
We live them out like everybody else
