avine - snow ghosts lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he took her hands, he stole her lands
branded her for living
cast aside and vilified
no sign of forgiving

[chorus]
so give her back her magpie wings
they taught her how to steal and sing
instead, he clipped and had her whipped
she was left to wander sinning

[verse 2]
he crushed her pride and stole her sight
she was left to travel blind
and stumble past the dead and done
fortune mocking at her side

[chorus]
so give her back hеr raven eyes
thе only way she knows to cry
as silent tears roll to her chest
where she longs for those who died

[verse 3]
he cut her tongue, took all she’d sung
words she spoke when she was young
the words they whispered down the dale
words she swore to never fail
[chorus]
so give her back her starling song
over winters, she’s passed on
to sing to fledglings flying nests
secrets kept and carried on

[verse 4]
with air and earth and water crowned
to ashes buried underground
she holds no place in this disgrace
liminal yet duty bound
the heron brings the swan will take
harbour secrets never found

[chorus]
so give her back her heron’s beak
so she can reach what lies beneath
forever never feather crowned
she’ll be waiting quietly
