1.
I saw your flash Like the knife of a killer With your glassy eyes And a mouthful of silver, oh I saw your hand Like the hand of destroyer I forgot all the time Yet I could never ignore you You traded skins With the friends that you made You brought from the ground With a silver spade, oh Your shadows cut Just like daggers do Or the brazen horn Of the caribou I heard your voice Coming out of the darkness Saying, “Your heart is my home, And home’s where the heart is.” oh I saw your hand Like the hand of destroyer Cause with that hand in yours Well, it will surely destroy you. Now I hear you play for the daughter Of the captain whose boat is going down While that ship sinks under the water We will sing, we will sing, we will sing, oh And we will sing for the light in the hearts of the people i know we will sing for our homes Ya, we will sing for the light in the hearts of the people i know we will for our homes, OH!

Fix my eyes Cause they’re broken Your eyes will never see again No matter whose head you put them in   There are black birds From your mouth So tear their wing off and hold your heart to the south   I’ve got a heart that will never last And you’ve got good friends I know, I know But I’ve got your wings And I’ve got your hands But you’ve got my eyes oh I know, oh I know
