feel the ocean as it breathes
shivering teeth
see the mountains where they meet
smothering me
as the wind fends off the waves
i count down the days
heavy stones
fear no weather
i find comfort in the sound
and the shape of the heart
how it echoes through the chest
from under the ground
as the hills turn into holes
i fill them with gold
heavy stones
fear no weather
and from the rain
comes a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
illuminate!
there's a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
an empire for two
an empire for you
an empire for two
and i paint your body black
i hide in your hair
and you're staring back at me
like i wasn't there
as our bodies become stills
we welcome the fear
heavy stones
fear no weather
and from the rain
comes a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
illuminate!
there's a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
an empire for two
an empire for you
an empire for two
and from the rain
comes a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
illuminate!
there's a river running wild that will create
an empire for you
an empire for two
an empire for you
an empire for two
