Linkin Park - Blackbirds lyrics

Your rating:



[Intro]

Drop that

get up

Take to the streets

better lock that kid up

Face full of teeth when he hock that spit up

Pacing the beat like a beast

Rocking the block on repeat

Speak from the cut like a rush of blood

Paint red on the sleeves of the ones you love

Lay the sick ones down and the bells will ring

Put pennies on the eyes let the dead men sing



[Verse 1]

I shiver and shake the warm air cold

I'm alone on my own

In every mistake I dig this hole

Through my skin and bones



[Pre-Chorus]

It's harder starting over

Than never to have changed



[Chorus]

With Blackbirds following me

I'm digging out my grave

They close in, swallowing me

The pain, it comes in waves

I'm getting back what I gave



[Verse 2]

I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades

As I waste away

It traps me inside mistakes I've made

That's the price I pay



[Pre-Chorus]



[Chorus]



[Bridge]

I drop to the floor like I did before

Stop watching

I'm coughing

I can't be more

What I want and what I need are at constant war

Like a well full of poison

a rotten core

The blood goes thin

the fever stings

And I shake from the hell that the habits bring

Let the sick ones down

the bells will ring

Put pennies on the eyes

let the dead men sing



[Chorus]



[Outro]

I'm getting back what I gave

I'm getting back what I gave
