Lyrics

[00:00.94] In the spring we made a boat
[00:05.30] out of feathers, out of bones.
[00:10.04] We set fire to our homes,
[00:14.41] walking barefoot in the snow.
[00:19.54] Distant rhythm of the drum
[00:23.77] as we drifted towards the storm.
[00:28.26] Baby lion lost his teeth,
[00:33.13] now they're swimming in the sea.
[00:38.44]
[00:48.11] Troubled spirits on my chest
[00:52.29] where they laid to rest.
[00:56.09] The birds all left my tall friend
[01:00.09] as your body hit the sand.
[01:04.27] Million stars up in the sky
[01:08.39] formed a tigers eye
[01:11.58]
[01:12.48] that looked down on my face,
[01:16.59] out of time and out of place.
[01:21.28] So hold on,
[01:22.84]
[01:25.96] hold on to what we are,
[01:31.39]
[01:34.25] hold on to your heart.
[01:40.84]
[02:22.15] Awaken by the sound
[02:26.33] of a screaming owl.
[02:30.26] Chasing leafs in the wind,
[02:34.38] going where we've never been.
[02:38.25] Said goodbye to you my friend,
[02:42.30] as the fire spread.
[02:46.57] All that's left are your bones
[02:50.75] that will soon sink like stones
[02:54.74] So hold on,
[03:00.05] hold on to what we are,
[03:05.29]
[03:08.28] hold on to your heart.
