Heartsigh

Heartsigh

Whisper, whimper on, I
Won't forget to close your eyes for you
I'll sing before you lie down, down
And push your sleep along

I'll sink below the ground
Find the weeping, wailing calls you echo in
I'll build a house around you
Stir a moat until you drown, down

I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine

Only, lonely, hidden breath beneath the floor
Only, only, where your tears drip from the drawers
Only, lonely, hid the morning from the stars
Only, only, weeping glimmers in the dark

I can hear your back crackin'
O'er the sky so you could wear it
Thunder whispered low, so
You could bear it in

I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine

Come down, come now back
Carry on, wearily on
Come down, come now back
Carry on, warily on

Only, lonely, hidden breath beneath the floor
Only, only, where your tears drip from the drawers
Only, lonely, hid the morning from the stars
Only, only, weeping glimmers in the dark

I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
I'll whisk away your heartsigh
And bury it in mine
