WINDHAND LYRICS

1. Two Urns

I know that palace is a tomb
We're goin' to another moon
Go on and do something good for me now

I know that palace is a tomb
We're goin' to another moon
Go on and do something good for me now
Go on and do something good for me now

Burning up the sun
Burning up the sun
Burning up the sun
Burning up the sun

I know that palace is a tomb
We're goin' to another moon
Go on and do something good for me now
Go on and do something good for me now

2. Forest Clouds

I know your ruse.
I see them everywhere.
I feed them to the sweetest thing I've found.

I go to sleep a hundred years.
'Till I am free.
'Till I forget the spell.

I made your bed.
I pulled the covers down.
I tucked you in.
I put you in the ground.

Like I knew you would.

3. Crypt Key

Send me who is lonely as I am
I've seen nothin' so cruel as God's plan

Softly I been bathin' in sunlight
Memories of the days when I was warm

My sweet angel stony face above
Sleepin' deeply safe from everyone

Send me who is lonely as I am
I've seen nothin' so cruel as God's plan

Softly I been bathin' in sunlight
Memories of the days when I was warm

My sweet angel stony face above
Sleepin' deeply safe from everyone

My sweet angel stony face above
Sleepin' deeply safe from everyone

Send me who is lonely as I am
I've seen nothin' so cruel as God's plan

Softly I been bathin' in sunlight
Memories of the days when I was warm

My sweet angel stony face above
Sleepin' deeply safe from everyone

My sweet angel stony face above
Sleepin' deeply safe from everyone
Safe from everyone
Safe from everyone

4. Tanngrisnir

5. Sparrow

I love a man, whose love is violence;
Who always comes, who goes away.
Who never brings me any flowers
To blossom in my blazing shade.

And all of his weak-heart love is lonely; our love is running out of breath.
When I wake, you cannot know me;
When I sleep, I dream of death.

Wire, Cradle, Cross and Arrow;
Mother's milk or Crone's Rage.
Mouths like Wolves, we dine like Sparrows;
There is grace in great restraint.

And all of his weak-heart love is lonely; our love is running out of breath
When I wake, you cannot know me;
When I sleep, I dream of death.

And I could not help but leave and wonder,
What spirit steals your awful head.
and I am grateful for your candor;
I could not love a better man.

‘Cause all of his weak-heart love is lonely; our love is running out of breath
When I wake, you cannot know me;
When I sleep, I dream of death.

6. Hyperion

7. Hesperus

Grower of grief's infernal flower
I am the love that always devours
I am the rain, I am the tower
I am the builder, the furnace of power

He has a steady hand
He liveth faithlessly
He is a paceless/faceless man
He fills/feels eternity

Drink from the devilish fountain
Fade in my memory
Call of the revelation
Call of the reverie

He has a steady hand
He liveth faithlessly
He is a paceless/faceless man
He fills/feels eternity

I am the rain, I am the tower
I am the builder, the furnace of power
Grower of grief's infernal flower
I am the love, that always devours

Drink from the devilish fountain
Fade in my memory
Call of the revelation
Call of the reverie

[4x]
I can't know
Yes I can

8. Kingfisher

When dying in the distant morning
And there is silence in the slumber growing mind
The only evidence of yearning
To leave some trace here in this everlasting night

Dawn of the desolation
Unwilling the ghost of the pain
All-seeing, all-knowing
Unwilling to cast it away

9. Aition

Goodnight my child, goodnight
Sweet dreams before the light
Goodnight my child, the darkness has come
Goodnight my child, goodnight

Dream of my emerald eyes
Dream of my emerald eyes
The summer has gone and so soon shall be I
Dream of my emerald eyes

The snake will have its day
The sun will burn away
On a sea of tears your cradle will sway
Above my cursed grave

No matter big or small
What rises surely will fall
When you have learned you are nothing at all
From the dark you'll crawl

Goodnight my child, goodnight
Make sure your sleep is light
Be warm of heart and fierce of fight
And keep the fire alive
Keep the fire alive
