Carbon Leaf - Wolfin' Down Your Heart lyrics

Artist: Carbon Leaf

album: Constellation Prize


You're wolfing down your heart
You've hollowed out your soul
Your empty hands are enough to starve from
But still full enough to choke
Black crows, they're waiting for you
They know your ego's an empty bowl
You're searching to hold on to
Just something you can use
The crumbs you dropped, the threads from your buttons
The laces off of your own shoes
Black crows, they're waiting for you
They know your ego's an empty bowl
Climb to the top of your world
To find that there's nobody there
One set of boots at a time on the summit
It's lonely when there's no room to share
Black crows, they're circling you
They know your ego's an empty bowl
The heart's to be given away
Just as it was made
The soul's a much more ephemeral engine
Not tethered to earth-bound ways
So, say hello and settle in
Or hop upon the slightest breeze
If it doesn't take you where you hoped it would go
May it land you square on your knees
Black crows, they're waiting for you
They know your ego, your ego
Black crows on the telephone poles
You know your ego, you ego
Black crows on the side of the road
They know your ego's an empty bowl
Whoa
You're wolfing down your heart
