WINDHAND LYRICS

1. Halcyon

Would you die to keep me out?
Cold black dragging under
I guess it's not working out
Dead and dreaming of the water

I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would

Would it kill you to be here
I guess I have seen it coming
Won't you suffer through the year
Dead and dreaming of the water

I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would

Now I hear you in my head
Walking to the gallows
Is that where you've always been?
I won't mind it if you hang around

I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would

2. Grey Garden

I used to recognize this place
I stoned a layer of youth and body [...]
Is it drifting in and out of space?
Is it drifting in and out of space?

Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it will go away
Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it will go away

Gonna put your flowers in a pot
Gonna wait and see what happens in the spring
If they're going to die or grow
If their gonna die, won't do anything

Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll blow away
Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll blow, soon it'll blow
Isn't it all a mess?
Isn't it all a mess?
Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll blow, soon it'll blow

I used to recognize your face
I walk the caples backwards into town?/time?
Is it drifting in and out of space?
Am I looking for someone who's not around

Gonna put your flowers in your heart?/park?
Gonna wait and see what happens in the spring
If they're going to die or grow
If their gonna die, won't do anything

Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll fade away
Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll fade, soon it'll fade
Isn't it all a mess?
Isn't it all a mess?
Isn't it all a mess?
Soon it'll fade, soon it'll fade

3. Pilgrim's Rest

You'll just lay softly
I think you cannot age at all
In the cloth of some pearly wool
How did you grow so hard of stone

And I hear every memory that beats like a drum
A sundown so plain and new

And you sleep like a moon
And take the end from the ruin

All things are love
And all love is pain
And our pain is all that is true

You'll just lay softly
I think you cannot age at all
In the cloth of some pearly wool
How did you grow so hard of stone

And I hear every memory that beats like a drum
A sundown so plain and new
To float like a feather but shoot like a gun
And it's too fast, it's too much, too soon

And you sleep like a moon
Take the end from the ruin

All things are love
And all love is pain
And our pain is all that is true
Our pain is all that is true

4. First to Die

Covered our mouth in blood
Covered our mouth in blue
Give in to what you are
My love will come to you

Suffered is born to die
Suffered will make anew
Give up this sacrifice
My love will come to you

First to die
To be born
First to die
To be born

Covered our mouth in blood
Covered our mouth in blue
Give up this sacrifice
My love will come to you

First to die
To be born
First to die
To be born
First to die
First to die
First to die
To be born

This is rebirth
This is rebirth
This is rebirth
This is rebirth

Covered our mouth in blood
Covered our mouth blue
Give back the sacrifice
My love will come to you

First to die
To be born
First to die
To be born
First to die
First to die
First to die
To be born

5. Light into Dark

[Instrumental]

6. Red Cloud

My hands are clean
Washed of your precious heart
You come to me
You come to me

Devotion
To hunger
To leave you
Owing no one

My hands are tied
Your precious heart is
Feeling so alive
You come to me

Devotion
To hunger
To leave you
Owing no one
And it's all
For nothing
Your sun is
Setting somewhere

My hands are clean
Washed of your precious heart
You come to me
You come to me

Devotion
To hunger
To leave you
Owing no one
And this all
The sun is
Setting somewhere

7. Eyeshine

8. Diablerie

Flat as window panes
I see paint
Rolling around in the same old cage
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easy to paint

Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again

Skin as thin as rows
Turn to dust
Do what you want to
Do what you must
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easy to paint

Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again

Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again

Flat as window panes
I see pains
Rolling around the same old cage
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easy to paint

Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again

Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back

9. Feather
