Lyric Rain King
When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black winged bird
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
And all other instruments of faith and sex and God in the belly of a
black winged bird.
Don t try to feed me
I ve been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been crying I ve been thinking
And I am the Rain King
And I said mama, mama, mama, why am I so alone?
I can t go outside
I m scared I might not make it home
I m alive, I m alive but I m sinking in
If there s anyone at home at your place, darling
Why don t you invite me in?
Don t try to bleed me
Cause I ve been there before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been lying, I ve been sinking
And I am the Rain King
Hey, I only want the same as anyone
Henderson is waiting for the sun
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends
After all the dreaming I come home again...
When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of dying
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a
black-winged bird
Don t try to bleed me
Cause I ve been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been dying, I ve been drinking
And I am the Rain King
Deliver me in a black winged bird
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
And all other instruments of faith and sex and God in the belly of a
black winged bird.
Don t try to feed me
I ve been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been crying I ve been thinking
And I am the Rain King
And I said mama, mama, mama, why am I so alone?
I can t go outside
I m scared I might not make it home
I m alive, I m alive but I m sinking in
If there s anyone at home at your place, darling
Why don t you invite me in?
Don t try to bleed me
Cause I ve been there before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been lying, I ve been sinking
And I am the Rain King
Hey, I only want the same as anyone
Henderson is waiting for the sun
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends
After all the dreaming I come home again...
When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of dying
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a
black-winged bird
Don t try to bleed me
Cause I ve been here before and I deserve a little more
I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She s been dying, I ve been drinking
And I am the Rain King
