[Verse 1]
White bird in a black cloud
You flap, eyes rolled back
Medicine gave you a heart attack
Big fight for a small right
First flight into white light
Pull the trigger, love at first bite
Big plan for a big man
Tough change for a tough guy
Twitching out the corner of your eye

[Verse 2]
White bird in a black cloud
Rain comin' down, thinking hey
Maybe we should turn this boat around
Heaven - maybe freedom
What's the word? Right, I forgot
Quiet is the closest thing we got
