When Crows Tick On Windows – Carach Angren – letras

Three quite calm nights went byMerely the silence before a new tempest arrivedAll hell breaks loose on night fourThe children can now hear how father is whipping their squealing motherWith his leather belt while she falls to the floorThe fear and tension is rising by the dayThe boy falls asleep but his sister is kept awakeBy having serious thoughts for the two of them to escapeTick-tack! It’s time to go!For there’s a crow… Tick! Tack… Ticking on her windowShe has no explanation why she has a terrible feelingThat someone is going to dieNext morning they leave everything behindThey bring some clothes, water and breadThey run with fearBut without hesitation and regretWithout looking backDarkness has fallenTwo children are afraid and lost in the nightThey walk on an old road when a car appearsAnd they’re too slow to hideGoddamn! He found them!Goddamn! He found them!Goddamn! He found themHis eyes glow like those of satan himself!He’s cursing, pounding, screaming!Throws his son into the carHits his little daughter so hard!Tell me the truth. I know this was youBut no more, little whoreI’ll punish you like I’ve never done beforeGoddamn! Goddamn!His eyes glow like those of satan himself!They get beaten, locked up and mistreatedThere’s no place like home!And she opens her eyes after another brutal nightWeeping wind whining hopeless tonesAnd there’s no sunshine, it’s still dark outsideThe living room is trashedThere are bloodstains and pieces of glass everywhereFather still passed out on the couchWhere’s mother? And why is there water dripping down the stairs?She walks up the staircase and sees her little brotherHolding on to the doorpost of the bathroomAs if he had just seen a ghostHis body is frozen, eyes wide openHe does not react to her voiceWhat’s wrong? A tear rolls down his pale faceAnd then!The sight of their dead motherFloating in light red water flowing from the bathtubShe had left the water faucet openTaken an overdose of pills and slit both her wristsNo! She is dead! She is dead! Mother is dead!No! Mama, why? Oh mother, goodbyeMommy, why? Oh mother, goodbyeWhen crows tick on windowsOh, when crows tick on windows
