What sighing wakes me Or is it just the wind outside What’s huddled at the door now The wild and broken and decide A hand I can But help myself
Didn’t know where to start To heal the scratches Hiding mine You’re hanging on the breath of winter And every single touch Is closing in but given time And trust You're fair, bright and new tomorrow
Who did we deceive Taken in But never believe me All I said is still true Still you cannot take me with you
Would you wonder why they were so kind
You would show me how Running nameless in the freezing light You would leave me now Sitting empty
So still as safe but growing strong And wilder so who’s dependent I never wanted you here I never want you to be gone I fear We're hanging on the breath of winter
Not that I believe we were so kind The safety and deceit forever Tame now or captive to this life Could you guess you might do better
You might have died
Looking out and it seemed so long Cruel enough but you were so injured Hear the wind any you long to run More than I believe to turn this tide
Once again the embers flicker Once again my ward is gone Once again the branches wither Once again the trust undone Again The doors thrown open Once again the lights are on Once again the hunter hunted And the chase is on Once again you live by murder Once again you die too young Can you still deny your nature Can you learn to be loved
