Lyrics:
Kleptomaniacrow
Following me wherever I go
Hoping Iāll drop something so
He can add to his collection
He likes the shiniest things
Dangling trinkets
Coins and beads
Offered up some crumbs to eat
But he didnāt seem interested
Kleptomaniacrow
Why follow I?
Iāve not much stowed away
In my pockets today
You have an eye on my necklace
You start a strange charade, a dance,
Aābeckon me to follow
So like you always do I follow you this time
You lead me far away
Didnāt take you for a tour guide
You and I, parading by,
Deep into the wood
Oh Kleptomaniacrow
Leading me somewhere I donāt know
And to my horror you led
Me to a body at rest and
There I stood shocked by your side
For to my surprise the body was mine
Did that mean I was a ghost?
I donāt remember dying
And as I stood there crying
Over my own lifeless body
You felt the time was right to snatch
The locket you'd been eyeing
To my demise I realized too late
And with the pull
The corpse had disappeared
And off you flew holding my soul
āFinders Keepers"
Written in chicken scratch
On my tombstone
Nice touch, thanks for that
Guess that grim reaper
Knew Iād never grow old
Awful funny sendinā birds to do your work though
āFinders Keepers"
Well you finally have my soul
But little do you know
That necklace is
That necklace is
āFinders Keepers"
Written in chicken scratch
On my tombstone
Gonna pay for that
Couldn't know better
Who knew death would come
With feathers
Who knew he'd send a greedy beak
Aāpeckin at my feet, oh
āFinders Keepers"
Well you finally have my soul
But, word to your crow, though
That necklace is fools gold

this reminds me of a dream i had, where i was playing a game that was priding itself as "mapping out dead people's houses", and after a few levels of going through creepy mansions and derelict townhomes, i was teleported to my own front door

After the crow snatched the necklace.. She couldn't sing anymore, but whistle with the souls and the wind. Such a small but an amazing detail.

"Awful funny sending birds to do your work, though" HER VOICE GIVES ME CHILLS I LOVE HER- AND THAT LINE IS JUST CHEFS KISS

I love how this can be interpreted as a helper of the Grim reaper who is very keen on the souls and found that the witch they met was close to death. And so, the crow takes the necklaceāher soulāand gives it to the Grim reaper, the Grim reaper lets her move on and the crow gets their little treasure, it may not be gold, but it was still something. Just like how everyone, no mather how pure they are, are worth something.

I'd love to watch an animated show with this artstyle

The part of this song that really reaches my heart is the line "as I stood there crying over my own lifeless body." It's hard to describe why this line grips me so hard. There's something incredibly touching about the idea of mourning your own death. I don't know. It's 5 am and I'm in tears looping this song.

I LOVE MADILYN MEI SO MUCH. I wonder how her voice would sound in a spooky song. Probably really beautiful.

My headcanon of "That necklace is fools gold" is that it was a fake. The ghost is still in the cemetery, and is later the same ghost in the last song of the album.

I love the fact that her voice sounds like a child and an adult at the same time

Did anyone else get chills hearing the grave digging for the first time? Wow.

I tried to explain this song to a friend, I explained it as "so there is this crow and this person is like 'oh the this crow love shiney things and adds then to a collection' and then later becomes 'oh crap that bird just stole my soul and gave it to the grim reaper š'"

Ohh, Kleptomaniacrow slides off the tongue so nicely! This tune is so relaxing and the animation is GORGEOUS! Your lyrical work is so beautiful, everything about your writing style is so smooth! Amazing work! š§”š
Edit: 2:34 the humming here is so ghost-like. Hauntingly beautif

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT A METAPHORICAL MEANING BEHIND THIS SINCE IT CAME OUT AND I THINK I'VE GOT IT
Mightn't be intended feeling but it works kind of :3
It's about a bad relationship. They start of with the witch giving the crown only trinkets, giving away small bits of herself. It declined crumbs, maybe meaning a proper healthy relationship? Something like that
Then the crow took her on a journey, idk starting a relationship together. At first it's fine and just travel, but then it took her to her dead body, so making her be in a very bad mental health state? Metaphorically killing her, ya know
Then it took her necklace with her soul, destroying her for its own benefit. However that turns out to not actually gain the crow anything- the necklace is fools gold.
This is still very vague, any thoughts please tell me!!!

I love how it tells a story. The idea isnāt to rhyme or make it main stream, theyāre telling a story from the heart
