lyrics

The Flood



Verse

Blackbird on high, strays far from home

A look to his face that says leave me alone

Where does he fly? What’s left behind?

The world in his eyes under burnt orange skies

Blackbird on high

Strays far from home

Blackbird on high

Leave him alone


Chorus

The bridges set ablaze, engulfed in the sea of flames

The night’s cries dissipate beneath the crackling fire’s rage

The hilltop’s scorched remains, a scent that can’t be erased

What’s left, turn your tail, fly away black bird, fly away.


Verse

Blackbird rests now where none could throw stone

Ocean’s lay still between he and his home

Where does he lie? What’s left behind?

Under silence of night on the wind hear his cry

Blackbird rests now

None could throw stone

Blackbird rests now

Leave him alone

Alan Donnelly Wexford, Ireland

My name is Alan Donnelly and I am a solo artist from Limerick, Ireland but living in Wexford, Ireland.

If you like what you hear follow us on the socials and playlist me on Spotify! ;) ... more
