Blood Red Bird Lyrics

I was not woken by the rooster
Nor by the crow's tough song
But the midnight cry of a blood red bird
Brought this sleeplessness on
What cries home
Where cries from
A blood red bird lies in the woods
What hand bent it to bust
To be useless
Like an arrow
I was only passing through

A blood red bird, a blood red bird
A blood red bird, a blood red bird
A blood red bird, a blood red bird
A blood red bird, a blood red...
