Don't you sing with a dark hearted songbird
Don't lift your voice to burn in her song
Don't you sing with a dark hearted songbird
Don't lift your voice to burn in her song

To sweetharts freigned a tendency but the blood of one lover flows unclean
And she's a blue -eyed sin for tempting married men to try to back a trail from the gates of heaven, Don't you sing with a dark hearted songbird
Her tears are breath on hot gun metal like a sickness of blood her kiss will settle upon/ and all the love you've shown and your family's dreams she'll be the dirty blade bought to break that sin, Don't you sing with a dark hearted songbird
With all the lies she's spun, with unbuttoned / a buttered tongue she'll preach a bitter faith for to sweeten your eyes and the only heart left with out a single care beats in a sweet little darling with jet black hair, 

Don't you sing with a dark hearted songbird
Don't you sing with the dark hearted songbird
Don't lift your voice to burn in her song
Don't you sing with the dark hearted songbird
Don't lift your voice to burn in her song
