"Blackbird" by Alkaline Trio from the album 'Is This Thing Cursed?' available August 31st Pre-order at http://www.alkalinetrio.com Credits: Lyric Video by Jason Link, Jonathan Weiner and Elizabeth Flores Lyrics: She’s black and red and built just like a spy plane Extracting information from my mind The photographs she takes save to a mainframe For your eyes only lonely cold war time (of mine) Now after all the city falls just like the night or an angel does Leave me here alone to collect my things She sees music in the terror she brings And like a Technicolor dream The light in your eyes blinded me From your perch you softly smiled My Blackbird softly smiled She’s built for speed and made for keeping secrets Stark and dark against enemy skies From miles above the earth no one can detect her My Blackbird blows a kiss that ends mankind (goodbye) And all this time there is no crime of treason that she hasn’t seen Leave me here alone to collect my things She sees music in the terror she brings And like a Technicolor dream The light in your eyes blinded me From your perch you softly smiled My Blackbird softly smiled SR 71 Blackbird from the hell above She’s the only one Only spy I ever loved She’s the only spy I ever loved Now after all the city falls just like the night or an angel does Leave me here alone to collect my things She sees music in the terror she brings And like a Technicolor dream The light in your eyes blinded me From your perch you softly smiled My Blackbird softly smiled SR 71 Blackbird from the hell above She’s the only one Only spy I ever loved Official Site: http://www.alkalinetrio.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alkalinetrio Twitter: https://twitter.com/alkaline_trio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Alkaline_Trio/
