So where am I?
I’m in a cold and hard place
And what are these?
These are hands always doing harm
So where am I?
I’m in a cold and hard place
And what are these?
These are hands always doing harm
So who gave you the keys to my cold storage locker?
Did you like what’s hanging inside?
So who gave you the keys to my cold storage locker?
Smell of you in summer rain
These are things I must remember
Smell of you in summer rain
These are things that will never be
All those piggies hanging up hanging for the slaughter
All those piggies hanging up hanging for the slaughter
They were there for you, they were there for you
They were there for you, they were there for you
So where am I?
It’s a cold and hard place
And what are these?
These are hands always doing harm
So who gave you the keys to my cold storage locker
Oh it couldn’t have been, couldn’t have been, couldn’t have been me
Smell of you in summer rain
These are things I must remember
Smell of you in summer rain
These are things that will never be
Who gave you the keys
Oh it couldn’t have been, it couldn’t have been, it couldn’t have been me
Oh who gave you the keys
It was me my dear love, it was me, it was me, it was me

They left him there
Despite of what he’d written
They left him there
In the face of his ambition
But I won’t surrender lightly, no
They left him there
In the pit with all his masters
They let him there
With the rats up in the rafters
Left him there, left him there, left him there
Despite of all the good things that he’d written
In the face of his shining ambition
But I won’t surrender lightly, no
It takes two to get off girl
So call me in the morning (when you’re ready)
(It will take us) Go on a wild ride
It will spin around your head (all the faces swimming in the water)
They will crash into the sea
Faces of everyone (Vibrations)
Scatter, shimmer, whirl
And you’ll melt, melt, melt into one
So they left me there
Despite of all the good things that I’d written
They left me there
In the face of my shining ambition
But I won’t surrender lightly, no

Architecture

Can’t you feel your architecture’s changing
These glass bones of yours are always breaking
And the marble in your heart is always chipping, chipping, chipping away
And there’s something under the stairs and it’s growing
The roof and the windows let in all the light and it’s raining
Cause it’s your home your home
I don’t live there anymore
Can’t you feel your architecture’s changing
These glass bones of yours are made for the breaking
And the marble in your heart is always chipping, chipping, chipping away
And there’s something under the stairs and it’s growing, it’s growing, it’s almost grown
The roof and the windows let in all the light and it’s raining
Cause it’s your home your home
I don’t live there anymore
So I’m taking a sledgehammer to everything you’ve ever owned in the home
Roof, windows, glass bones and all
And I’m gathering the coven together
And we’re sea salting, sea salting, scorching the earth
As the sage smoke rises and rises, drives you from this place
Cause it’s my home, my home
Cause it’s my home, my home, my home now

Infant, laid at your feet
Gently laid
At your command I rise
Looking up at my fate
At my destiny, at my end, at my end
So many years spent longing for you
So many loving ones
Far, far, far, far

Goddess, mother of the world
Of the valleys
Cradled amidst your skirts
Longing, longing for clouds
I am longing, longing
I rise with vision
I climb without knowing
I rise with morning
I am so high
I cannot, I cannot breathe
I am so high
They will name this land for me
They will weep and miss me
I am so high
I will climb your skin
I will fall in your crevasses
I will climb your skin
I will fall

Oh dear brothers
Miss our mothers
Let us stand, shoulder to shoulder
And freeze, freeze, freeze at night
Climb under barbed wire, tonight
Green smoke writhing, writhing, writhing
Green smoke sinking, sinking
I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, I can’t
Oh dear brothers
Don’t light a cigarette at night
Miss our girls back home
When will we see home
And freeze, freeze, freeze at night
Climb under barbed wire, tonight
Green smoke sinking, sinking, sinking
Green smoke writhing, writhing
I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
Oh dear brothers
Miss our mothers
Let us stand shoulder to shoulder
Don’t leave me
Green smoke sinking, sinking, sinking
Green smoke writhing, writhing
I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
