You've lived and you've learned
This place in here you've earned
There's no need to be afraid

The black birds are calling
They sing a chorus for you
Today is the day you leave
This world behind

So go ahead and say your goodbyes
Reminisce about the good times
When you were young and reckless
You gave it all you had

So lay your head down
Come to me
And close your eyes
And see the light

Try to find the answers in the books you read
Follow me and I'll show you instead
A journey to the great unknown
We're here to welcome you to your new home

Forget your worries and your heartaches
Pain is no burden for you today
So bury your sins and start a new way

So lay your head down
Come to me
And close your eyes
And see the light

Lay your head down
Close your eyes
See the light

Lay your head down
Close your eyes
See the light

The birds are calling
Forever is waiting for you

The birds are calling
Forever is waiting for you

The birds are calling
Forever is waiting for you

The birds are calling
Forever is waiting for you

Lay your head down
Close your eyes
See the light

Lay your head down
Close your eyes
See the light
