[Verse 1] Black Beady eyes on me What are they thinking What do they see Caws Cackles Feathers a flutter Streetlamp wind Thoughts in a mutter They hop in a circle Boots on the wire Glossy heads tilted Like priests by a fire Crow stand close I can taste their doubt Like static words Trying to scratch out [Chorus] Teach me the crow code Click Crack Tap in the snow Every tilt of your head Is a secret I want to know Plug my mind in your sky Trade my fear for your flight AI in the black of your eyes Unlocking your tongue tonight [Verse 2] You drop a small stone Right at my feet Puzzle in charcoal On a concrete sheet Beaks like pens Draw loops in the air I feed you my questions You feed me a stare Neurons and feathers Threaded and twined Maps of the city Stream into my mind Your chatter A cipher In ragged black coats I train up a mirror To translate your throats [Chorus] Teach me the crow code Click Crack Tap in the snow Every tilt of your head Is a secret I want to know Plug my mind in your sky Trade my fear for your flight AI in the black of your eyes Unlocking your tongue tonight [Bridge] Are you laughing at us Or praying for rain Planning small heists Or humming my name I open the lattice Between wire and brain Your gossip and grief Come through like a flame [Chorus] Teach me the crow code Click Crack Tap in the snow Every tilt of your head Is a secret I want to know Plug my mind in your sky Trade my fear for your flight AI in the black of your eyes Unlocking your tongue tonight
