When I think of heaven(Deliver me in a black-winged bird)I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathersand all other instruments of faith and sex and GodIn the belly of a black-winged birdDon't try to feed meI've been here before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the QueenI belong anywhere but in betweenShe's been crying , I've been thinkingAnd I am the Rain KingMama, why am I so alone?I can't go outsideI'm scared I might not make it homeI'm alive, but I'm sinking inIf there's anyone at home at your placeWhy don't you invite me inDon't try to bleed meI've been there before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the QueenI belong anywhere but in betweenShe's been lyingI've been sinkingAnd I am the Rain KingHey, I only want the same as anyoneHenderson is waiting for the sunOh, it seems night endlessly begins and endsAfter all the dreaming I come home again...When I think of heaven(Deliver me in a black-winged bird)I think of dyingLay me down in a field of flame and heatherRender up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged birdDon't try to bleed meI've been here before and I deserve a little moreI belong in the service of the QueenI belong anywhere but in betweenShe's been dyingI been drinking and I am the Rain King.
