About

A song about a grieving mother who, in a state of delusion driven by despair, tries to perform a miracle out of makeshift materials, while deep down knowing she’s lying to herself and that it won’t work

Lyrics

Verse 1

Girl of sadness, bide your time

Scrape the moss from chilly stones

Sculpt the form, forge its spine

Watch it grow to something more

Instrumental Interlude

Verse 2

Girl of sorrow, bide your time

Deep earth's savour is infuses

Scent of smoke enwraps your child

Brings the soul to life's illusion

Chorus

Breathe the height

Crying down

Drop

Wait for your purpose

(wait)

Verse 3

Girl of grief, bide your time

Try to keep your ghosted warmth

Your creation starts to move

Time to split the eternal soul

Outro

Step outside

The dark is close

Wait for your purpose
