Fury

(album: While Your Heart's Still Beating - 2022)

The thing that you don't know about me
Is that I'm made of fury
Bigger than a mountain, deeper than the sea
All the things you thought you knew about me
That I'm smaller than an island, quiet like a tree
Harmless as the breeze
You didn't see me flex my muscles
Stretch my legs, hold my head
You didn't watch me test my mettle
Paint it red, break my silence

I'm made of fury
I'm gonna tear your heart out with my teeth
And all my sisters are just like me
So you better run

The thing that you don't know about me
Is that I am an army
Stronger than an earthquake, louder than your fears
All the things you thought you knew about me
That I'm your little darling, do what you please
And get down on my knees
You didn't see me shed my feathers
Stretch my wings, see me burning
You didn't watch me break my tether
Loose my strings, now your head's turning

'Cause I'm made of fury
I'm gonna tear your heart out with my teeth
And all my sisters are just like me
So you better run
I'm made of fury
Get your sweaty hands away from here
'Cause all my sisters are just like me
So you better run

And when we're done
You'll be stiff all right
Just not the way you'd like
You won't be calling
And when we're done
We'll show you what it's like
To have an appetite
You won't be calling

I'm made of fury
I'm gonna tear your heart out with my teeth
And all my sisters are just like me
So you better run
I'm made of fury
I'm gonna bury you under these streets
And all my sisters are just like me
So you better run

(You better run)
