Blackbird by Alter Bridge

The willow, it weeps today
A breeze from the distance
Is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait

Across the horizons
Coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again

The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded
A place so impure

The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly
Long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their day

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again

Ascending you find your resistance
You know that you've made such a difference
In all you leave behind
You'll live to the end

The cycle of suffering goes on
But the memories of you stay strong
Some day I too will fly
And find you again

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again
