I know this one deep black autumn song
I know a black place to hide
I got a black box deep inside
Got one speciman of a sting
And I hear what the crickets sing
When they go to die
Oh I know this one deep black autumn song
Makes me think what I don't want to think
Makes me say what I don't want to say
I'm leaving my seed deep in the earth
I'm stretching my branches far out into the world
So wild is the wind and loud is its call
I'm shaking my crown and watch the leafs
That fall
Yes I know this one deep black autumn song
I got a hole deep in my heart
I find my soul falling apart I feel the pain and I just don't care
I watch the dog on the hunt for the hare
Oh I know this one deep black autumn song
Makes me feel what I don't want to feel
Makes me do what I don't want to do
I'm leaving my seed deep in the earth
I'm stretching my branches far out into the world
So wild is the wind and loud is its call
I'm shaking my crown and watch the leafs that fall
Is this a preface to the end
Or just another seed growing
Down in the ground?
