It came to fruition this evening.

Crowsong

Stomp stomp stomp chaclick
stomp stomp stomp slam
crunch crunch crunch crack
crunch crunch crunch -

You left your footprints runnin round the yard.
You left your hair out on the barbed wire.
You left your blood-soaked feast across the snow.
You left your shadow long enough to start a fire.

Awoooo, awoo,
their song is singin out behind you.
Awa, awa, awa, awa,
forest guard alarum cries.
Awoooo, awoo,
their chorus seems to swim around you.
Big man done grabbed his gun an now you gonna die.

You run this way a thousand times before.
You run this wood, but you never seen it like a noose.
You run this word stepping between one breath and the next.
You run this world til it stops - - -

I know your family takes any food you find,
I know your family sleeps safe and warm curled up in bed,
I know your family will never know you're gone,
but you stole one too many times, and blood is paid in blood.

Awoooo, awoo,
their song is singin out behind you.
Awa, awa, awa, awa,
forest guard alarum cries.
Awoooo, awoo,
their chorus seems to swim around you.
Big man done grabbed his gun an now you gonna die.

You see the river stretching out a road before you.
You see the ice cracking and you hope that it can hold you.
You see the shadow of big man taking aim behind you.
You see the crow and you know you
