Two Crows in a Shifting Sky

[Verse] Two crows on a barbed wire fence, feathers turning gray, Perched where the fields used to run free, now it's just decay. Small town, boarded windows, the hollowed-out machines, Echoes of the past they knew, dreams now torn at seams. [Verse 2] Rusty sign by the highway, barely points the way, Where we used to chase the sunset, now it’s shades of gray. Friends moved to the city, left the farm behind, Two old crows and me, the last of our kind. [Chorus] The world keeps spinning, but we're standing still, Once we ruled the roost here, now we just watch and will. Roots dug deep, wings spread wide, but life's a fleeting sigh, Two crows in a shifting sky, never stopping to ask why. [Verse 3] Old barn's holding secrets of the days we used to know, Summer nights and starry skies, now they're just a show. The river’s path is crooked, carving out the land, Just like time upon our faces, things we don’t understand. [Verse 4] Late nights on the porch swing, listening to the night, Owls joining in our chorus, songs of silent plight. We crows, we tell our stories, etched in twilight's gold, Of days when time was gentle, before the world turned cold. [Chorus] The world keeps spinning, but we're standing still, Once we ruled the roost here, now we just watch and will. Roots dug deep, wings spread wide, but life's a fleeting sigh, Two crows in a shifting sky, never stopping to ask why.
