[00:00.941]Rooks -Shearwater
[00:30.771]When the rooks were laid in the piles
[00:34.181]By the sides of the road
[00:40.51]Crashing into the aerials
[00:42.991]Tangled in the laundry lines
[00:48.931]And gathered in a field
[00:50.681]They were burned in a feathering pyre
[00:58.991]With their cold black eyes
[01:04.121]When the swallows fell from the eaves
[01:07.811]And the gulls from the spires
[01:13.241]The starlings in millions
[01:15.501]Would feed on the ground where they lie
[01:22.181]The ambulance men said
[01:24.181]There's nowhere to flee for your life
[01:32.251]So we stay inside
[01:37.511]And we'll sleep until the world of man is paralyzed
[02:13.51]Oh the falconer awakes to the sound of the bells
[02:21.381]Overhead and southbound
[02:25.571]They are leaving his life
[02:30.701]And each empty cage just rings in his heart like a bell
[02:39.71]Underneath these cold stars
[02:43.71]In this trembling light and he cries
[02:49.941]Amen let their kingdom come tonight
[02:56.571]Let this dream be realized
