Intro: x2
I was lost in the lakes
And the shape that your body makes
That your body makes,
That your body makes,
That your body makes.
Interlude:
And the mountains said I could find you here
They whisper the snow and the leaves in my ear
I traced my finger along your trails
Your body was the map
I was lost in there
Floating over your rocky spine
The glaciers made you and now you're mine
Floating over your rocky spine
The glaciers made you and now you're mine
Interlude: x2
I was moving across your frozen veneer
The sky was dark, but you were clear
Could you feel my footsteps?
And would you shatter, would you shatter?
Would you?
Interlude: x2
(strum once each for the first two lines, then go back to normal)
Your soft fingers between my claws
Like purity against resolve
I could tell then there that we were formed from the clay
And came from the rocks for earth to display
They told me to be careful up there
Where the wind blows a venomous rage through your hair
They told me to be careful up there
Where the wind rages through your hair
Ending: x2
End on Eb
