Carbon Leaf - Gathering lyrics

Blinding bright, we see
Through renaissance dreaming
We believe the daily muse
Buried but listening
And all we need is gathering

Fighting night, we leave
All our befallen gifts surround us
We retreat to the darkened lodge
That's cold with no songs to sing
And all we need is gathering

So chase the bear or run away
Put on your mittens to curse the flame
Spirit's from the gallows sang
"Stand in the fire but pray for rain"

Hollow out yourself just to take it in again
And find the distant sound an empty vessel
But, it's always haunted, thrashing out
Soon we find all we need is gathering

So chase the bear or run away
Put on your mittens to curse the flame
Spirit's from the gallows sang
"Stand in the fire but pray for rain"

Blinding bright, we sing
Through renaissance dreaming
We believe the daily muse
Buried but forever free
And all we need is the gathering

So chase the bear or run away
Put on your mittens to curse the flame
Spirit's from the gallows sang
"Stand in the fire but pray for rain"

So chase the bear or run away
Put on your mittens to curse the flame
The songs of old remain the same
Stand in the fire but pray for rain
Stand in the fire but pray for rain
Stand in the fire but pray for rain
