about

thick with spacious pedal steel and distant muted electric guitar over the top of lyric that seems to be a soulful "call to arms"

lyrics

there's a raven perched up over the stoplight above this town
and an old man in the cellar with sunlight locking it down
go on take that sunlight and fly, steal it away
on the wings of a wind-tired blackbird, the sun's rising today

little girl is in the corner crying as the accusations fly
she can't unsee it or stop the sound as her innocence dies
go on take that sunlight and fly, steal it away
on the wings of a wind-tired blackbird, the sun's rising today

let it rise and chase the shadow of our past right into the day
let it rise on ragged wings it makes the story better anyway

someone might try to take what's shining bright
cover it up, beat it down or lock it out of sight

you might be scared, but you've got wings don't you?

go on take that sunlight and fly, steal it away
on the wings of a wind-tired blackbird, the sun's rising today

let it rise and chase the shadow of our past right into the day
let it rise on ragged wings it makes the story better anyway
