Plague Bird

Dawn the mask to filter the scourge of love
Filled with juniper, mint and clove
Seen through the eyes of the Plague Bird
Blood-letting, straight from the heart
Heavily waxed and sealed from the air
The vile presence burns the lungs
Rise, the stench of Black Death
Re-balance the humours that bind
Breathe
This air is poisoned with the past
See
My heart bleeds in misery
Veil
To hide my eyes from the truth
Run
Far from this life I knew
Drape of lies embrace the soul
Distracting sight from forward growth
Seen through the eyes of the Plague Bird
Blood-letting, straight from the hearts
Breathe
This air is poisoned with the past
See
My heart bleeds in misery
Veil
To hide my eyes from the truth
Run
Far from this life I knew
Aromatic plume blankets the cold
Born with a consuming burn
Breathe
This air is poisoned with the past
See
My heart bleeds in misery
Veil
To hide my eyes from the truth
Run
Far from this life I knew
