Blackest Sparrow/Darkest Night

Tangled up, arise again
Indigo, it’s just as well
Texas got the darkest of my fears
The hills arrive on the night crusade
For poorer men it’s a judgment day
We didn’t know ’cause the news it don’t get here
So diagnose, identify
The desperate might testify
And others, they’re just waiting’ ’round to die
So Nora Lee, please promise me
That you will find some way to be
Here with me together in the end
The sparrow flies through the blackest night
On either side of quietude
Deliver me and set my father free
’cause he knows that our darkest day
Ain’t as dark as a full time stay
Here amongst the traitors and the thieves
