Heart of My Own (The Garden Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Under that burning ether that falls Down on these walls, burning my arms I've been alarmed of what is said by you For every word I could undo I've been uncrossed and I've been untrue I've been the thorn, I've been the heart [Chorus] But the heart of my own, burn it down low The light in your verse and the shadow between The way that I was when I used to know If I go, what do I hold? Ah, the maid or the mother I'll be If only the loom and a thread were whole It is work to be dancing out here If tomorrow I'm mending the еmpty bones There arе roses that come without seeking There are the ones that I have to sew In your verses that I am repeating The way that I was when I used to know [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] I wrote on these walls a simple charm To keep the wolves at bay Gave all my heart, the strength of my arms To hold you close and safe Oh, I kept my eyes closed I never know where the shadows are these days I stood in the room of a house divided But it washed away from me It washed away from me Oh, how it washed away from me [Chorus] It washed away to take my own, burn it down low The light in your verse and the shadow between The way that I was when I used to know If I go, what do I hold? Ah, the maid or the mother I'll be If only the loom and the thread were whole It is work to be dancing out here If tomorrow I'm mending the empty bones There are roses that come without seeking They are the ones that I have to sew In your verses that I am repeating The way that I was when I used to know
