[Verse 1]
Son, I've got to tell you what I've seen
About the darkest covens that I've been
In the end it will all be fine
Because my heart was old
And wise that night

[Verse 2]
To the [?]
In front of the walled city
The same that we saw
Hundred years before
Faces of children and
I've got to run because my hunters were just
Behind me, son

[Chorus]
[?] mighty nightingales
Who love to sing in the dark
Hoping they'll not find my past
[?] mighty nightingales
Cause the other birds forget
How to sing in the dark

[Verse 3]
I'm fleeing above the rooftops
Fleeing above the rooftops
Your [?] leak from my hands
From my hands
From my hands
[Pre-Chorus]
And the nightingales, they cover my back, son
The nightingales, they cover my back, son
The nightingales, they cover my back, back, son
And the nightingales, they cover my back, son
The nightingales, they cover my back
The nightingales, the nightingales, the nightingales

[Chorus]
[?] mighty nightingales
Who love to sing in the dark
Hoping they'll not find my past
[?] mighty nightingales
Cause the other birds forget
How to sing in the dark
[?] mighty nightingales
Cause the other birds forget
How to sing in—
