lyrics

(S)
A lamb of light climbs in a hole covered with washing eyes, to share the pain and burden I sometimes cannot fight. These galloping hooves they come in waves to shake me up and down, These bleeding hooves they come in waves to shape me once again.

(A&S)
Black sheep,
tie a knot.

(S)
A lantern in the sky grows further and further falls. My struggles in vines draped on the walls. My struggles entwined like bricks on a wall. Some days I'm living but some I'm barely breathing out.

Break.
Breaking.
Hanging in there.
I'm hanging in there.

Tie a knot.

(A&S)
Lonely nights are sleepless knights.
How many sleepless knights to count this time.
She keeps her head eye level.
She fears what's above and already knows what's below.
