Lyrics

As The Crow Flies

you've got to stay within the lines they say well, who are they anyway enclosed within these four walls mixed up in shades of grey

i've a coffin built for twenty and it's big enough for everyone won't you come join me and feel free to bring a friend won't you feel free to bring a friend

and i paint a pretty picture of everything i think i see and i hardly notice anymore when i'm kneeling at the garden door

like a drunkard asking for a dime
i'm folding up my hands again
begging for mercy
won't you have mercy on me

and everything is straight and narrow
and everything is safe
i like to wander down the back roads
and wallow in my sorrow

but i'm knee deep in luxury
and i"m knee deep in these fields of wheat
here there are no boundaries
only windows to infinity

chorus:
and i
and i will
and i will fly as the crow flies

and the road to sanity
is paved with regrets of many some i have forgotten
others i have met straight on
fearless in my tragedy
i will play the martyr every time
and you can play the hero
but why is everything so shakespearian
why is everything so shakespearian

we memorize our lines again
just give me back my wings
place me under threatening skies
i’ll still find time to sing

but it’s better than being locked up
in this tower of ivory
waiting for my hero to
come up and rescue me

chorus:
so i
so i will
so i will fly as the crow flies
