"After the Blackbird Sings"

Words and Music by Jakob Dylan, Tobi Miller, Rami Jaffee, Peter Yanowitz, and Barrie Maguire

I'm finding it hard
Just to keep up with someone
Who's hanging on to nothing
Only to lose what's never mine

And I'm finding it hard
Just to keep up with something
That's hangin' on to nothing
To keep all these chains tied up in line, in line

Pretty Angel
She bites the hand of the lion
Ties it up with ribbon
Watches as the hound dogs bang on her drums, drums

It's so easy for you to love nobody

It's so easy for you cause you're not trying anymore

I seen this girl

She had her hands full of lightning
She rolled it down to me
A Lolita smile
With a thorn in her eyes
Up on the edge of a pearl
A carnivals girl
Up on a ferris wheel, forever, forever

It's so easy for you to love nobody
It's so easy for you cause you're not trying anymore
Just don't try anymore

Now she, she howled like an owl
Only to fall like a sparrow
And lay beside a scarecrow
But after the blackbird sings
Is the song, the song

It's so easy for you to love nobody
It's so easy for you cause you're not trying anymore
