Doomsayers are the lucky ones
They celebrate the end of days
Won't be lonely when the rapture comes
Still they sit in the dark
Taking shots at their enemies
Don't let the burden fall on common sense
Just take your winnings and invest
Before you wake and find your money spent
Yea such a terrible scene,
It haunted his teenage dream
1000 blackbirds falling down
You say I'm a cloud on the new year
Tell you again that I let you down
I bet my future on a winning hand
But sat wait for second comings
Spend the cold years as a bitter man
You can call me a fool
At least I've got my own point of view
Another year and where's the money gone
Another face lift for the masses
Get a smile stuck on the chosen one
When there's nothing to win
Wave a white flag in the wind
1000 blackbirds falling down
You say I'm a stain on the new year
I tell you again that I let you down
But what else could I do my dear
1000 blackbirds falling down
Dancing after darkness in the shadow of an aftermath
Feeling underneath when they're
Staring at an overdraft
It's no fun. Being burned. By the sun
1000 blackbirds falling down
You say I'm a cloud on the new year
I tell you again that I let you down
But what else could I do my dear
1000 blackbirds falling down
You say I'm a stain on the new year
I tell you again that I let you down
But what else could I do my dear
1000 blackbirds falling down
Ooo oo ooo
1000 blackbirds falling down
Ooo. Ooo ooo oo
1000 blackbirds falling down
