lyrics

They say the edge is the seam
that connects you and me
This subtle knife is running though my spine
and I'm the source of sweat on its blade

In the right light -
it bends the night without a fight
Blood and salt embrace sweet skin
like popped champagne mist sparks a grin

Oh the color of the sky, so amber so light
Let's etch our names in bark, we will write our life
and stop the others who call for blight
so our tree stands tall, impermeable

Autumn as our blanket, the wind walks with a breeze
Blood and salt bend time
while a swollen mouth whispers please!

They say that the times have changed
autumn turns to winter and emotions' to blame
This sharp cold is running up my spine
and it's (I'm) the source of doubt with a chill

In the dark night -
it bends moonlight with an honest fright
Blood and salt embrace their skin
like a candle flicks an irridescent grin

Oh the color of the sky, so amber so light
Let's scratch our names off bark, you will write your life
and stop the others who call for blight
So your heart stands strong and capable

Autumn as our blanket and the wind walks with a skip
A lost soul bends love
while swollen fingers touch lips

This is the end of an era
This is the end (Is this the end?)
This is the end of an era
This is, just is

This is the end of an era
This is the end (Is this the end?)
This is the end of an era
This is, just is

This is the end of an era
This is the end of an era
This is just,
my time to grow

This is the end of an era
This is the end of an era
This is just,
my time to ... 1 2 3, grow!
