When Crows Tick on Windows lyrics
by Carach Angren
Three quite calm nights went by
Merely the silence before a new tempest arrived
All hell breaks loose on night four
The children can now hear how father is whipping their squealing mother
With his leather belt while she falls to the floor
The fear and tension is rising by the day
The boy falls asleep but his sister is kept awake
By having serious thoughts for the two of them to escape
Tick-tock! It's time to go!
For there's a crow...
Tick! Tock... Ticking on her window
She has no explanation why she has a terrible feeling
That someone is going to die (?)
Next morning they leave everything behind
They bring some clothes, water, and bread
They run with fear
But without hesitation and regret
Without looking back
Darkness has fallen
Two children are afraid and lost in the night
They walk on an old road when a car appears
And they're too slow to hide
