Brown Bird - Bow For Blade lyrics

Bred by skin, born to dust
Raised in flames and aged in rust
Build an altar on high for the world to see

Crawl in stalks, run to the sea
Scour every shore for industry
Burn the bulk of the battles in effigy

Forced at birth, trained in trade
Anger feeds the child that music made
Frustration fueling the fire every
Step of the way

Over rocks and through the wood
Swallow all the reels and ales she could
Battle rages but all we wanna do is play

Falling through the sky
Crowds have gathered, mouths gaped open wide
Some shouting some are stupefied
Others would rather be home
And though the cowards cast
Their qualms aloud
The falling still descend alone

Wrought with earth, sick with jade
Travel don't make the luster fade
Toil cheek to cheek and bow for blade

Braced in flame and souls to keep
Desire won't let the monster sleep
We burn bright and broil in our crusade

Falling through the sky
Crowds have gathered, mouths gaped open wide
Some shouting some are stupefied
Others would rather be home
And though the cowards cast
Their qualms aloud
The falling still descend alone
