I Am Crazy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I thought I'd like to die where I was born But I've been kicked out with no money You said my voice put splinters in your spine The sounds of failure and cold water running [Verse 2] I tried to sleep but couldn't in the storm I called for you but knew you wouldn't come Send me a remedy for this thing I'm feeling I just can't sleep [Chorus] Dreams black and blue I am crazy Someday I know I'll fly away just like a sparrow [Verse 3] At night I go and walk out in the fields My singing even makes the stones cry I know you'll come back when you've had enough to eat You'll hold me close like you might kill me [Bridge] With a gun or a knife or a whip or a stone Bury me with five hundred others But in the evenings I'll still stand at your gate You'll just see me and turn away [Chorus] Dreams black and blue I am crazy Someday I know I'll fly away just like a sparrow Dreams black and blue I am crazy Someday I know I'll fly away
