lyrics

Is this
Unbroken?
Leaden
Passing time

Sound
Peeling off
And it's falling
Sonic dust

Planks
In this house
Deteriorate
A long decay

And through the cracks
Windy silence
Whistling, reclaiming

My daughter, my son
With your arms in slings

Our extremities
Numb
from the coldest days

I built this fire
For those darker things

The machines
That made us old x2

A mother for
An ocean unseen

No one heard
Your waves crashing

Lift the cloud veil
From the glowing moon

A mother to pour the light on you

An alchemy

A strange glow

This will be a permanent thing
O Children
A permanent thing

Those vile and ancient songs
We won't ever sing
Those vile and ancient songs
We won't ever have to sing
