+ Show full styles

Inspired by the extraordinary Nevermoor series by Jessica Townsend. A tribute to the girl who was told she was cursed... and became a legend instead. Written, composed & produced by DNJL © ℗ 2026 DNJL. All rights reserved. (Verse 1) Have you heard the story Of the girl they couldn't save? Born beneath a blackbird sky, With one foot in the grave. Every broken promise, Every storm the people knew... They whispered: "It was Morrigan." As frightened people do. (Pre-Chorus) But stories change When someone dares To live beyond the page. (Chorus) So here's to Morrigan Crow... The girl who never let go. They called her cursed, She called it home. She found a light Where none had shone. Oh... Remember now... The ballad of Morrigan Crow. (Verse 2) Then came an old umbrella, A city wrapped in dreams. A place where all the broken things Were stranger than they seemed. Some feared her name. Some feared her gift. Some feared what they couldn't know. Funny how the darkest seeds Can be the ones that grow. (Pre-Chorus) The ones who write The ending first Don't always know the truth. (Chorus) So here's to Morrigan Crow... The girl who never let go. They called her cursed, She called it home. She found a light Where none had shone. Oh... Remember now... The ballad of Morrigan Crow. (Bridge) If ever crows Still cross the moon... If ever Storm clouds gather... Listen close. You'll hear her laughing. And Nevermoor Will answer. (Final Chorus) Here's to Morrigan Crow... The girl who changed us all. The curse became A battle cry. The smallest voice Can shake the sky. Oh... Sing it loud... The ballad of Morrigan Crow. (Outro) Some stories end. This one... Flew.
