Banshee Tree - Hard Winds Lyrics

If I knew a song with all I was able
It'd be deep in my palms like a wave to the rocks
I see you running fierce with the teeth of a sable
Now you're at my window with the skeleton stars

Right as I stand in my new set of skin
See me breaking it in when you find my up there
A sound doesn't stop, it's only taking a hostage
In the silence that lives above the moving air

One and one, another gone
Three stars in the sky
Trace a ray to an outer place
Where starlight goes to die
Arm and arm we brave the storm
That's gathered in our eyes
One and one, another gone
A thousand tons of blood, bone, and ice

Familiar place with the will of a loved one
I remember the time, the taste, and the walls
If I let it take me into the warm room
Where everything holds on, everything stalls

Away with the birds and the bells and the neighbors
Into the well for a couple of days
I'm there to rehearse what will never be made
Into anything more than a peculiar phrase

One and one, another gone
Three stars in the sky
Trace a ray to an outer place
Where starlight goes to die
Arm and arm we brave the storm
That's gathered in our eyes
One and one, another gone
A thousand tons of blood, bone and ice

I saw the beast that did death a favor
Ran to the sky with the blue in my veins
Hard winds took the skin and the marrow
All of the buildings and the castles of kings

I'd be happier then, having read the ending
Tracing the ups and all the downs of a line
If I was ready for the static that held me
I'd rebuild myself with whatever I find

One and one, another gone
Three stars in the sky
Trace a ray to an outer place
Where starlight goes to die
Arm and arm we brave the storm
That's gathered in our eyes
One and one, another gone
A thousand tons of blood and bone and ice
