If they're waiting for me white with teeth
They'll find me in a whiter sleep
My grandsons left me feathers in the wind
Overcome by the fires that our fathers dreamed
And I see ashes in the wake
Turning blue waters grey
There was lightning in the eyes that let my head rest in flames
I held her in a dying light
Every surface trembled toward the night
My lover she has built for us a home
Made of hailstorms and rivers filled with flowers and bone
And I see blood on her head
turning blue waters red
Every time I love her the air gets filled with lead
My lover she is whispers in the breeze
Filled with landslides and fury turning colors in the leaves
And I'm a trembling in her gaze
Making blue water rain
It was enough to make her love me not enough to make her stay
