Say You're Mine

(альбом: Brutal Dawn - 2017)

It's a steep flight from this nest aloft
It's proving much faster than the climb
Your search light has found me here bloated and lost
Drunk of the fruits of my very own vines

The first missteps on this winding path
Set alarm bells ringing in my ears
The laboured breath of my chequered past
Still hot on my neck after all these years

I'd burn it all down
I'd tear you a hole in the sky
I'd give it all up
Just to say, just to make you mine

I hovered and I wavered over it long enough
It was the darkest and loneliest day
And the trolls in my head made their delicate cuts
And had the pound of flesh carried away
Carried away

There's a silver line strung around the clouds
That range from the eastern sky
Predicted sun but it's raining again
These are the days when I feel I'm beginning to fight

I laid down that blackbird in a comfortable nest
I patted its dark feathers down
See its tiny heart beating hard in its chest
The humming of its wings such a heart breaking sound

I'd burn it all down
I'd tear you a hole in the sky
I'd give it all up
Just to say, just to make you mine

Just to make you mine
