The willow, it weeps today
A breeze from the distance
Is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and waitAcross the horizons
Coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you awayLet the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken againThe fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded
A place so impureThe static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly
Long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their dayLet the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken againBeyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken againAscending you find your resistance
You know that you've made such a difference
In all you leave behind
You'll live to the endThe cycle of suffering goes on
But the memories of you stay strong
Some day I too will fly
And find you againLet the wind carry you home
Blackbird, fly away
May you never be broken againBeyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again
