She can't see the landscape anymore It's all painted in her grief All of her history etched out at her feet
Now all of the landscape, it's just an empty place Echoes and warning, mountains of tenderness
[Chorus:] Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow Cause it's burning through the bloodline it's coming down the family tree Rolling in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
She wants the silence but fears the solitude She wants to be alone and together with you So she ran to the lighthouse, hoped that it would help her see She's sober at the lighthouse and then washed out to sea
[Chorus]
I wanna give you back the open sky Give you back the open sea Open up the ages, darling, for you to see
You put the gun into your mouth to bite You pull it and spit it out 'Cause it's running in the family All the rich and you and me
